Real Estate & Expansion Specialist

ABOUT WINGSTOP

We're not in the wing business. We're in the flavor business.

Since the first restaurant opened in Texas in 1994, our mission has been to Serve the World Flavor, and we're just getting started. By 2002, we had already served a billion wings worldwide. Flavor is what defines us, and it's what has made Wingstop one of the fastest-growing restaurant brands in the world.

Today we're a $2B+ business with more than 2,000 restaurants globally. In Spain, we opened our first restaurant in Madrid in 2024, and we haven't stopped growing since: we're expanding across Madrid and Barcelona, with more cities on the horizon.

OUR CULTURE

At Wingspain, culture isn't a sign on the wall: it's a management tool. It defines how we work when no one's watching, and that's exactly what matters. Our culture rests on two pillars: real care for people combined with high performance standards, and professional development as a core part of working here. When both are aligned, the business gains autonomy - that's how we scale without losing quality.

We are attitude + talent + flow. It's how we do things, how we relate to each other and to our customers, and the mark we leave. It's not taught, it's transmitted.

We live this culture through four values:

OWN THE VIBE - The energy you bring changes everything. We don't do drama or feed toxic attitudes: we look for solutions and keep things moving. Everyone owns the team's atmosphere.

FEEL THE BURN - We face challenges with courage and grit, even when things get intense. We take initiative, jump into the new, and don't shy away from what's difficult.

EXPERIENCE MAKERS - We're masters at creating experiences people can't wait to repeat. Every interaction matters and every detail is remembered.

FLAVOR STYLE - We have our own vibe: a mix of attitude, talent and flow that shows when we work together. We do things with intention, never on autopilot.

YOUR ROLE AT WINGSTOP SPAIN

Wingstop Spain is in full expansion mode - Fuencarral, Maquinista and Parquesur are already underway, and this is just the beginning. We're looking for a Real Estate & Expansion Specialist to become the first piece of that cycle: the person who turns "we want to grow in this area" into a concrete list of viable locations, well analyzed and with real return potential.

You'll work closely with the Expansion Manager and Direction, feeding the growth pipeline with solid opportunities before a project moves into the construction and opening phase. Your job doesn't end at finding a location - it ends at defending, with data, why that location is the right bet for Wingstop.

Analyze cities and priority areas in coordination with the expansion plan defined together with Direction and investors.

Search for, map, and prospect locations that fit our operating model and brand positioning.

Assess the preliminary technical and administrative viability of each proposed location.

Estimate timelines, costs, and projected sales per location, building the first business cases.

Prepare executive summaries and documentation for each opportunity for internal review and, where applicable, for Wingstop and investors.

Support the initial negotiation of acquisition or lease transfer agreements.

Keep the location pipeline always updated and prioritized by expected return.

WHO YOU ARE

We're looking for people who feel there's always an opportunity to grow personally and professionally, who have a fire in them to pursue excellence even in a fast-paced, growing environment, and who bring strong emotional/social intelligence, professionalism, and a positive can-do attitude.

Role-specific requirements:

Experience in real estate, commercial site search, or retail/restaurant expansion.

Market vision: you know how to read an area, a street, foot traffic flow, and translate that into a solid business hypothesis.

Proficiency in Excel/basic financial modeling - you need to be able to estimate and defend a number, not just intuit it.

Negotiation skills and the ability to build long-term relationships with landlords and real estate agents.

Autonomy and the ability to move constantly between locations without losing sight of priorities.

Fluent English, both spoken and written.
