About The Position

KFC is seeking a Sr Manager UX/UI to lead the evolution of our global digital brand experience. This role sits at the intersection of design, technology, and customer experience, shaping how millions of customers interact with KFC across digital touchpoints. As part of the Atlas / Brand Experience team, you will play a critical role in advancing KFC’s global web and mobile app platform. Atlas is designed to deliver a consistent, high-quality digital experience across all markets, ensuring that—like leading global platforms—the core UX/UI feels familiar and intuitive wherever customers engage with KFC. The platform is built on a foundation of global UX/UI standardization, enabling speed, scalability, and brand consistency at a worldwide level. At the same time, Atlas supports thoughtful localization, allowing markets to tailor menu offerings, merchandising, and promotions to meet local customer needs. Localization is applied selectively—only where it adds value—so the core experience remains cohesive while still delivering local relevance. In this role, you will define and drive a cohesive UX/UI vision that elevates the brand, improves usability, and delivers measurable business impact across web, mobile, ordering platforms, and emerging channels.
