We have a clear commitment to engaging, communicating, developing, involving, and recognising our people and we do so through this commitment.
Our initiatives like Women on the Move, Mentorship Circles, the Emerging Leaders Programme, and Heart Styles enable our 30,000 strong team to develop their potential and realise their dreams.
With a presence in 22 sub-Saharan African markets and over 30 000 employees across our restaurants and support centres, we’re always looking for people with the right ingredients to join the KFC family.
Our people are more than their job titles. We believe that within everyone lies Bucketloads of Good and want to provide a place where they can become the best version of themselves.
That is why we’ve introduced the Fast Food Services Management Learnership programme for our internal employees. This 12-month learnership programme run in partnership with Imsimbi Training aims to uplift and elevate their skills. It provides on-the-job training, related to their field of study.
But that’s not all; the KFC Streetwise Academy houses three additional internship programmes for graduates and experienced hires with grand visions of changing the world. The Restaurant General Manager Internship is primarily for those who want to advance into higher operational roles at KFC, the Graduate Development Programme is for new graduates, and the Management Development Programme is for those who want to pursue a career in management.
We’re passionate about unlocking true potential. So, employees won’t just learn how to do the job they’re hired for here – we’ll bring out their best by equipping them with the tools, skills and knowledge they need to grow. They will learn the way the Colonel would want – with heart. And become all that they can be and more.
