We burst onto the restaurant scene in 1997, when we shook up London and showed the UK a new way of eating. Part of this was the 'kaiten' conveyor belt and colour-coded dishes which made our name.

We're all about fresh, flavoursome, authentic Japanese food. Sushi is what we're famous for, but we also have a mouth-watering range of hot street food available - from traditional classics to innovative fusion dishes. All packed with rich, aromatic flavours and umami. Fast forward to today and we have over 70 restaurants all over the globe, more than 300 kiosks in the UK, with grocery products and pre-pack sushi in most major UK supermarkets.

We are looking for dynamic individuals with a love and passion for food to join us on our exciting journey Our people are at the heart of what we do:

• You will lead consistent standards and support your Manager to analyse profit performance.
• You will constantly drive standards and hospitality, leading and challenging Squad Members to achieve the highest levels of service.

• You will work closely with the ASM to assess the skills and knowledge gaps within your YO
Squad, you will help build and sustain a high performing team that embodies our brand behaviours.
• You will support with Squad Member training, in a supportive and motivating manner ensuring that successful performance is reinforced, and constructive feedback is provided.
