Kfc Uk Jobs – Head Of Sustainability In Cardiff, UK

Overview

Position Title: Head Of Sustainability

Company: KFC

Location: Cardiff, UK

Job Description:

At KFC, our platform has constantly evolved to make it as easy as possible to order our great chicken. We brought our development in-house four years ago which has helped to drive collaboration and innovation. Here at KFC, we empower people to be their best selves, make a difference and have fun.

 

Think you can only buy our chicken in-store at our restaurants?! Think again! We’ve created a fast, simple omnichannel experience to help people order and get their food in the way that is most convenient to them, whether that be through our app to collect service via the front counter or drive-thru, in-store kiosk integrations, or fully integrated aggregator delivery (Deliveroo, JustEat, UberEats etc) and there’s more to come. KFC’s digital technology stack has grown to process nearly half of the transactions processed through our restaurants, so we are looking for people to help drive these developments and keep everything ticking… so no-one misses their chicken.

 

We want everything that’s built to not only be fit for purpose but work well, so we test everything rigorously from inception to being released to our customers. We currently use a mix of manual and automation testing but we’re looking to drive more automation across all parts of the business to help improve quality and efficiencies and as the Lead, it will be part of your role to help influence this change.

Responsibilities:

• Act as the Sustainability team lead ensuring legal compliance and implementing goals and targets
• Be a point of contact between KFC and relevant external stakeholders
• Develop our biodiversity strategy and ensure it lands across the business
• Shape, evolve and deliver the environmental strategy, running the Environment Working Group and reporting into the Responsibility Council
• Lead a small sustainability team (currently one direct report, plans to recruit further), but set goals and actions for multiple functions (e.g. Ops, Marketing, Development) so they have clarity on what our strategy means for them
• Establish our IMS (ISO 14001 and 50001)
• Attend meetings, events and seminars, representing the business externally to build relationships and enhance reputation with a range of stakeholders—including politicians, NGOs, thinktanks, trade associations, etc.— feeding all relevant insight and information back to the business
• Develop policies and standards and work with business stakeholders
• Create operational metrics, track and manage delivery timelines, and communicate programme status to internal stakeholders
• Be a key advisor and stakeholder across all pillars of Sustainability in its widest sense – welfare and sourcing, nutrition, community / social purpose, our people
• Be a champion for Sustainability across the entire business, using your influence to drive change, working across other functions and other markets to share best practice

Requirements:
