What are the responsibilities and job description for the Closing Kitchen Team Member position at Chick-fil-A?
The Closing Kitchen Team Member role is a unique opportunity that provides you with the ability to contribute to a high-performing team on a consistent schedule every day. Each day, these Team Members will arrive at the restaurant to prepare the restaurant for an effective dinner service and restaurant close.

This role will develop you quickly, and historically, many of our opening Team Members have leveraged this development into a rapid promotion to Shift Lead or Manager!
