About Chick‑fil‑A – A Legacy of Service, Community, and Innovation

Founded in 1967 by S. Truett Cathy, Chick‑fil‑A is more than a restaurant; it is a cultural institution that has redefined fast‑casual dining in the United States. With over 2,300 locations across 47 states and Washington, D.C., the brand is renowned for its original chicken sandwich, unwavering commitment to hospitality, and deep‑rooted focus on community service. Every Chick‑fil‑A restaurant is a locally owned franchise that operates under a shared set of values: the pursuit of excellence, genuine hospitality, and a dedication to making a positive impact in the neighborhoods we serve.

Our remote team members play a pivotal role in extending that signature Chick‑fil‑A experience beyond the physical restaurant walls. Whether you are taking orders through our drive‑through window, handling online pickups, or supporting kitchen operations, you become an ambassador of the brand’s core philosophy – to treat every guest like family.

  • Comprehensive benefits including health, dental, vision, 401(k) matching, and generous paid time off.

Position Overview

The role of a Remote Chick‑fil‑A Team Member is multi‑faceted, allowing you to engage directly with guests, process transactions, and collaborate with kitchen teammates—all from a remote or satellite location.
