Take on compelling challenges
We’re more than a restaurant. Our passion is to nourish people and bring joy to their lives. We do that many ways—the work we do may surprise you.
We’re tackling complex challenges every day. Creating new menu items that delight with healthy, simple ingredients. Constructing new approaches to store layout and design.

We’re looking for curious, tenacious thinkers who bring diverse perspectives and are passionate about working on challenges just beyond our grasp. We’re need good people who can rise to meet the challenge in front of them.

We’re growing—adding restaurants every day.
And we’re building an inclusive team who offers diverse perspectives to tackle the challenges on the horizon. As we grow, our people grow. At Chick- fil-A, you have a voice in your journey.

We invest in our people because our people are our strength. And we’re just as interested in personal growth as we are in professional growth. We care about our people, inside and outside of the 9 to 5. We want each person to grow into the fullness of who they were meant to be.
Restaurant Employment
Most Chick-fil-A Restaurant businesses are owned and operated by entrepreneurial, franchised Operators who seek to be in business for themselves, not by themselves. They recruit, hire, train and manage their own employees, handle all matters regarding team member employment at their restaurants, and set their own employment policies and procedures.
“We should be about more than just selling chicken. We should be a part of our customers’ lives and the communities in which we serve.”
Continuing our founder's legacy of generosity and service, in 2017 the company’s philanthropic Chick-fil-A Foundation awarded $1.23 million to 23 not-for-profit organizations across 13 states through the True Inspiration Awards and almost $9 million in scholarships to restaurant team members nationwide.
