Why Nando's? That’s a good question, but also a question with no definitive answer. In fact, if you asked everyone who worked for us, you’d probably get a different answer every time. For some it may be the fact that we’re the kind of name that’s on everyone’s lips. For others it may be the fact that we’ve won awards for being a great place to work and continually invest in our people. To be on the safe side, we’ll go over a few of the reasons why people join us.

Benefits

Since the beginning we’ve wanted Nando’s to be a different place to work. Naturally, rewards will depend on your role, but we’ll clear that up with you before you join!
