Restaurant Shift Leader

$10 per hour

Noodles & Company

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.

We know noodles, and we know how great food and genuine hospitality bring people together. Our Shift Leaders help make that happen through steady execution, teamwork, and leading by example on every shift. 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.

We offer a place to learn, grow, and build confidence, with perks designed to support both work and life:

  • Join a supportive restaurant leadership team where your voice matters
  • Competitive pay plus tips
  • Flexible schedules for part-time or full-time needs
  • Ability to get early access to earned pay
  • Meal and lifestyle discounts, including event tickets and cell phones
  • Tuition assistance and scholarship opportunities
  • Recognition programs that celebrate your achievements
  • Free mental health, legal, and financial resources to support your well-being
  • Medical & pharmacy, dental, vision, and pet insurance
  • 401(k) with employer match and stock purchase discounts
  • Leadership development programs to fuel your growth
  • Free online Spanish and English courses
  • Noodles Resource Groups - inclusive communities that foster belonging, build connections, and support your personal and professional growth

As a Shift Leader, you help lead a successful shift by:

  • Bringing previous leadership or management experience (preferred).
  • Experience in customer service, hospitality, or restaurant operations, with the ability and willingness to support and lead across both front- and back-of-house.
  • Leading with energy, positivity, and consistency, especially during busy shifts and peak hours.
  • Supporting, coaching, and motivating team members throughout the shift.
  • Upholding and modeling food safety, quality, cleanliness, and daily operational standards.
  • Delegating responsibilities effectively to support smooth service and strong results.
  • Owning open, mid, or close routines for your shift and setting the next shift up for success.
  • Recognizing team members for their contributions and celebrating shift wins.
  • Communicating clearly with your team and addressing issues as they arise.
  • Meeting the physical requirements of the role, which may include, but are not limited to, standing for long periods, bending, twisting, reaching, lifting up to 55 pounds, and performing routine restaurant tasks, with or without reasonable accommodation.
  • Must be able to obtain and maintain any required food safety licenses or certifications in accordance with local, state, and federal regulations.
  • Must be at least 18 years old, making this a strong opportunity for individuals looking to gain leadership experience and advance their restaurant career.

Noodles & Company is an Equal Opportunity Employer and a Military Friendly workplace. We encourage Veterans and their spouses to apply. We are proud to be recognized on Forbes' Best Employers for Diversity, Forbes' Best Employers for Women, and Forbes' Best Employers for Company Culture lists, and are committed to creating a workplace where Noodlers feel supported, respected, and able to bring their full self to work.

Application Deadline: We accept applications for this position on an ongoing basis. There is no specific application deadline, and we encourage interested individuals to submit their applications at their convenience.
