About the Role

This isn't a typical restaurant job. At this locally owned and operated Chick-fil-A in Midland, Texas, leadership means something real. You'll step into a role where you're responsible for people, operations, and outcomes — and where you'll learn what it actually takes to run a business from the inside out.

If you're studying business, thinking about owning a business someday, or just want to be somewhere that takes your growth seriously, this is a place to do that.

What You'll Do

- Lead a team during shifts — setting the tone, keeping things moving, and stepping in when it counts- Coach and develop team members, giving real feedback and building people up- Own the guest experience: address concerns directly, turn tough moments around, and set a high standard for service- Manage opening or closing procedures and ensure operational standards are met every time- Track and respond to key metrics — speed of service, food quality, team performance- Support inventory, scheduling, and day-to-day restaurant operations- Work directly alongside the Operator to understand how decisions get made at the ownership level

About You

- You're serious about leading people, not just managing tasks- Currently pursuing or recently completed a degree in business, management, hospitality, or a related field- You want firsthand exposure to what running a business looks like — the wins and the hard parts- Comfortable giving direction, taking accountability, and staying calm when it's busy- Strong communicator who can connect with both teammates and guests

Nice to Have

- Previous experience in a restaurant, retail, or customer-facing leadership role- Familiarity with scheduling, labor management, or food service operations- Genuine interest in franchising, entrepreneurship, or multi-unit operations

What's Offered

- Direct mentorship from a local Operator who has built and runs this business- Real leadership responsibility — not a training program title- Competitive pay for the Midland market- A culture built on care: for guests, for team members, and for you- Flexibility to grow within the location as the business grows

This role is about more than running a shift. It's about learning what ownership looks like, building skills that transfer anywhere, and being part of a team that holds itself to a high standard.
