Manchester Area, United Kingdom Burgerism Full time

We're Burgerism

Our goal is to become the Domino's for burgers, offering fans a made-to-order, restaurant-quality smashed burger for delivery and collection. We're 100% digital and fully focused on off-premise dining (we don't do restaurants).


Since we started in 2018, we've become a cult burger brand across the North West. We're proud to be the most ordered meal on Deliveroo, and the #1 most ordered burger on Uber Eats, in Manchester - and have been recognised as one of Britain's Top 10 burgers according to The Times.


Role Description:

You'll be responsible for overseeing and managing the people function - in a style and manner that is right for Burgerism (and our unique way of doing things). Some of the day-to-day tasks will include recruiting and onboarding new employees, managing employee relations, implementing HR policies and procedures, conducting performance evaluations, and fostering a positive and inclusive work environment. The People Manager will work under our Dir. of Ops to ensure effective communication and alignment of HR strategies with the overall operational and business goals.


We care a lot about character. And we look for behaviours / traits that align with our values:

  1. You'll have a tendency to give praise rather than find fault - hospitality is a busy environment and we look to positively reinforce rather than constantly criticise.
  2. Belief - in our team, our mission, and in yourself. Burgerism is building a unique business and we look for people who truly buy into what we do.
  3. Keep it real - we're an authentic, inclusive organisation with zero tolerance for egos. We don't cut corners, we fake nothing and we love to keep it real in everything we do.


Qualifications / experience:

  • QSR experience is essential - we're looking for someone who truly understands quick-service restaurants, and the culture within.
  • Cultural obsession - you understand the importance of culture and know how to nourish it.
  • An expert in talent identification - our team is everything at Burgerism, and in particular hiring/finding great store leaders will be one of your biggest tasks as we open new locations.
  • An ability to develop an internal progression pathway for all our team members.
  • Experience in HR management, including remuneration planning, employee relations, and performance management.
  • Knowledge of HR policies, procedures, and employment laws.
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills.
  • Ability to build and maintain positive relationships with employees and stakeholders.
  • We'd love to see first hand experience of taking a business on a journey, with a clear understanding of how to scale the people function.


This is a hands-on role and will involve being in and amongst our store teams on a regular basis. We value someone who is willing to spend time in our stores to gain a deep understanding of the nature of our workplace, team and culture.
