Shift Leader

At Noodles & Company, our mission is to nourish and inspire every team member, guest, and community we serve. We are hiring Shift Leaders to lead, coach, and work alongside our teams to deliver great food and welcoming guest experiences.

Whether you're supporting your team during a busy rush, keeping operations running smoothly, or creating a positive environment where people feel supported, your leadership shapes the experience guests come back for.

If you're ready to grow your leadership skills and take the next step in your restaurant career, apply today. After your interview, we'll treat you to a complimentary meal (up to $10 value), because every great connection starts with great food.
