About Pizza Express

PizzaExpress. We're an iconic and well-loved brand across the UK and also in Ireland under our Milano branding. We have over 460 restaurants at home and also nearly 100 restaurants internationally in places such as China, India, UAE and Hong Kong to name but a few and we’re over 50 years old.

Undergraduate Assistant Manager - South Region

A placement year in hospitality isn’t for everyone. There are long unsociable hours, fast pace and lots of responsibility, and we accept that not everyone wants this challenge/level of challenge.

On the other hand, during our placement you won’t be stuck behind a desk or doing low level admin tasks. Our Undergraduate Development Programme will give you full training in a supportive and responsible environment and then you’ll take the opportunity to be an Assistant Manager in one our restaurants – doing everything that comes with that title.

What’s great about this programme is you’ll get exposure to so much of our business. You’ll be managing a team, making sure they’re trained, creating rotas and coaching staff, dealing with stock and supplies, serving customers, as well as working to high sales and service targets. It’s a fully rounded role giving you a huge range of management skills to take forward in to your career.

This placement is designed for students who are on a 4-year degree course, ideally in Business or Hospitality Management, who want a placement for their sandwich year.

We’ll offer you a comprehensive development programme, including attending our 8-week management induction. Throughout the year you’ll be set development objectives, have role-specific training, and complete a business related project based on real life priorities within our business.

Your time with PizzaExpress doesn’t have to stop when your placement is over. You’ll get the opportunity to stay with us and work part-time during your final year, and we can be flexible with locations, so if you want shifts in your hometown over Christmas, we can also help out there.

If that year goes well you will have the comfort of knowing a full time, permanent role will be waiting for you once you graduate, and you can start your career with a full development programme in place, which will help you fast-track to other roles in the company.

That should take the pressure off you and allow you to concentrate on getting a brilliant degree result!

And just in case you were wondering, yes, there’s a lot of free pizza…

If you’re up for that challenge apply here and see where your journey takes you.
