At Hankki, work is more than a job — it's a chance to grow as a person. You'll gain practical skills, develop leadership, and build confidence through teamwork and ongoing training at Hankki Academy. Every guest interaction is an opportunity to make someone's day, because Hankki is more than a meal — it's an experience.

Your growth doesn't stop at the kitchen or counter. We encourage career paths into marketing, IT, finance, design, HR, expansion, and beyond. Whether Hankki is your stepping stone or long-term career, we'll support your journey — helping you build skills, confidence, and pride that last a lifetime.
