Closing Kitchen Team Member

$17.25 - $18.5 per hour

Chick-fil-A

The Kitchen Is Where It All Happens

As a Closing Kitchen Team Member, you'll be part of the team responsible for preparing the food our guests love—quickly, accurately, and with an uncompromising commitment to quality. You'll work in a fast-paced, high-energy environment where teamwork matters, the standards are high, and there's always something happening. From preparing fresh food to keeping the kitchen running smoothly through closing, you'll play an important role in making the entire restaurant successful. If you're energetic, hardworking, and take pride in being part of a team that pursues excellence, we want you in our kitchen.

What You'll Do

Be the Heart of the Operation

  • Prepare and cook food safely, quickly, and accurately.
  • Work as a team to deliver fresh, high-quality food to every guest.
  • Learn and master every kitchen position.
  • Keep up with new products, promotions, and procedures.
  • Maintain a clean, organized, and safe kitchen throughout the shift.
  • Communicate with your teammates and respond quickly to the needs of the operation.

Own the Close

  • Deep clean and sanitize kitchen stations.
  • Safely shut down and clean equipment.
  • Restock and prepare the kitchen for the next day.
  • Make sure the restaurant is ready for a successful opening the following morning.
  • Follow all food safety, operational, and company standards.

Keep Growing

  • Participate in ongoing training and development.
  • Build skills in teamwork, communication, time management, and leadership.
  • Take initiative and look for ways to make the team and operation better.
  • Learn from experienced leaders and grow into new opportunities.
Who We're Looking For

We're looking for someone who brings energy to the room and takes pride in doing things the right way. The ideal candidate is:

  • 18+ with availability to work evenings and closing shifts.
  • Someone who has 1+ year of kitchen experience.
  • Someone looking to build valuable experience while working in a high-performing team environment.
  • Energetic, dependable, and ready to stay busy.
  • A positive teammate who genuinely enjoys working with others.
  • Motivated to learn and willing to take on new challenges.
  • Detail-oriented and observant.
  • Someone who takes initiative rather than waiting to be told what to do.
  • Responsive to the needs of the team.
  • Passionate about serving others and creating an excellent guest experience.
  • Committed to high standards of quality, cleanliness, and food safety.
Why Work Here?

Choosing where you work matters. Here's why our team is a place you can grow, belong, and succeed:

  • We Launch: Build skills that go far beyond the kitchen. Develop communication, teamwork, leadership, and time-management skills that will serve you in your next job, career, or opportunity.
  • We Equip: You won't be thrown into the deep end. We provide hands-on training, coaching, and the tools you need to become confident in every position.
  • We Listen: Your ideas and feedback matter. You'll work with leaders who want to know what you think and help you become better.
  • We Invest: We invest in our people through competitive pay, meaningful benefits, free education opportunities, scholarships, leadership development, and more.
  • We Reward: We celebrate people who work hard, grow, and make the team better through recognition, appreciation, bonuses, milestones, and everyday perks.
Ready to Be Part of Something Bigger?

Working in our kitchen is about more than making great food. You'll learn how to work under pressure, communicate with a team, take ownership, solve problems, and perform at a high level—skills that will follow you wherever you go. Whether you're looking for a great job while you're in college or want to build a long-term career with us, there's room to grow here. If you're ready to work hard, move fast, have fun, and be part of the heart of the operation, we want to meet you.
