Are you an early riser looking for a job where your hard work can pay off? At Chick-fil-A Citygate, Opening Team Members start at $17.00 per hour and have the opportunity to earn up to $20 per hour by developing new skills, cross-training, and taking on additional responsibilities.

What You'll Do

• Work in the Kitchen or Front of House, depending on your strengths, training, and our team's needs.

Grow Your Skills. Grow Your Pay.

You don't have to become a leader to earn up to $20 per hour!

At Chick-fil-A Citygate, you can work toward higher pay by learning new skills, becoming proficient in additional positions, and expanding what you're able to contribute to the team.

Your growth doesn't have to stop at your starting rate. We want team members who are eager to learn, take pride in their work, and build their earning potential over time.

Pay increases depend on skill development, performance, and the restaurant's compensation practices.
