Front of House Leader

85% of our Managers and 25% of our Support Centre teams started on the shop floor.

Leaders, inspirers, and drivers of their teams, our Front of House Leaders are our in-shop champions, coaching and mentoring their teams. These wonderful people are the protectors of the things that make Pret, Pret - keeping standards and spirits high, and our teams and customers happy. When the shop gets busy, so do they; it's what makes them, them - whether it's rolling their sleeves up on the coffee machine (with training, of course) or immersed in the figures and spreadsheets.

A people person without a doubt, with a passion for helping their shop, and the people in it grow.

Be kind, honest and generous: bring genuine warmth and your authentic self to work every day.

Bring your passion: share our passion for exceptional customer service.

Spread joy every day: small acts of kindness (like giving away a free coffee on the house) are a big part of what makes the Pret experience special.

You lead with purpose - driving team performance, protecting profit, and keeping customers happy through high standards and great energy.
