Back of House Manager – Chick-fil-A

More than just a job. A chance to lead with purpose.

Are you a passionate food service leader looking for a role where you can inspire a team,

create incredible meals, and maintain a balanced life outside of work? At Chick-fil-A, we

believe in the power of great food and the people who make it. Our Back of House Managers

play a vital role in leading kitchen operations, ensuring food quality, and fostering a

strong, efficient team—without the relentless late-night hours that come with most

restaurant leadership roles.

Why Chick-fil-A?

Too often, restaurant leadership means sacrificing personal well-being for the job. At

Chick-fil-A, we do things differently. We believe in creating an environment where leaders

thrive—not just in the kitchen, but in life. That means:

No grueling late-night closes.

A leadership culture that prioritizes work-life balance.

Every Sunday off—to rest, recharge, and refuel.

For those who love the art of cooking, the science of kitchen efficiency, and the

camaraderie of a high-performing team, this role offers the perfect blend of leadership,

service, and career growth.

What You’ll Do:

● Lead and inspire a high-energy Back of House team, ensuring efficiency and teamwork.

● Oversee kitchen operations, food safety, and preparation standards to deliver the

quality guests expect.

● Train, develop, and mentor kitchen staff, helping them grow their skills and confidence.

● Maintain an organized, sanitary, and well-stocked kitchen at all times.

● Manage inventory and food costs to ensure smooth operations and minimal waste.

● Execute timely and high-quality food production while keeping up with guest

demand.

● Balance speed and excellence, ensuring every meal served is both fresh and

remarkable.

What You’ll Bring:

● Experience in restaurant, food service, or culinary leadership (previous management

experience is preferred).

● A proven ability to lead teams through communication, coaching, and

accountability.

● A passion for food preparation, operational efficiency, and developing others.

● A guest-first mindset with a high sense of urgency and attention to detail.

● The ability to thrive in a fast-paced, high-energy kitchen environment.

What We Offer:

● Competitive pay and a comprehensive benefits package (including health, dental,

vision, life insurance, and 401k matching).

● Paid time off—because rest is essential.

● Free meals on shift.

● A leadership culture that invests in YOU—coaching, training, and development at

every level.

● A predictable schedule—without the brutal late-night hours.

● Every Sunday off. Always.

● Paid training to support your growth and success.

Locations:

● Clemmons (2551 Lewisville-Clemmons Rd)

● Bermuda Run (260 NC 801)

If you’re looking for a leadership role that fuels your passion for food and people—without
