Chick-fil-A Team LeaderAt Chick-fil-A, leadership is not about being in charge, but taking care of those IN our charge.

All leaders at Chick-fil-A are responsible for embodying the Owner/Operator's vision and core values, creating a fun and focused work environment, leading and coaching others toward success, and ensuring all aspects of shift management result in an outstanding experience for each guest.

Team Leaders are responsible for supervising assigned stations for an entire shift and may be assigned to open or close the restaurant in the absence of a manager; following established opening and closing procedures.

Managers coach and develop Team Leaders toward success, take ownership of higher-level responsibilities in the restaurant such as food safety and operational systems, cash flow, inventory management, scheduling, and more - all of this in addition to leading shifts alongside and in lieu of Team Leaders.

Restaurant Directors work to implement the business mission and strategy alongside the Owner/Operator by developing and coaching restaurant leaders, crafting and implementing strategies for operational execution, and driving the team toward success and business results.
