Job description

Who We Are

At Chick-fil-A, we’re more than a restaurant—we’re a team committed to serving others with excellence, care, and intentionality. Everything we do is centered around creating a remarkable experience for our guests and a supportive environment for our team.

What You’ll Do

We’re looking for a hands-on problem solver to own the functionality of our restaurant.

As our Facilities Coordinator, you will:

• Perform daily walk-throughs to ensure all systems are working (kitchen, equipment, POS, etc.)
• Troubleshoot and fix issues in real time (technology, minor repairs, equipment resets)
• Serve as the go-to person when something breaks or isn’t working
• Coordinate with vendors and submit work orders when needed
• Take initiative to solve problems quickly—even if it means researching or picking up parts the same day
• Support the team during busy times (this is a team-first role, not isolated work)

What Makes This Role Unique

This is not a typical maintenance position.

You will also:

• Work alongside the team in daily operations as needed
• Build relationships and contribute to a positive, team-oriented culture
• Play a key role in protecting the guest experience by ensuring everything runs smoothly

Who We’re Looking For

• A self-starter who doesn’t wait to be told what to do
• Someone who is resourceful and enjoys figuring things out
• Comfortable with basic tools, technology, and troubleshooting
• Strong communicator (must be able to clearly communicate in English)
• Takes ownership and follows through
• Thrives in a fast-paced, team environment
• Aligns with Chick-fil-A values: service, humility, teamwork, and excellence

What You Can Expect

• Full-time hours with a mix of facilities and operational shifts
• A supportive team environment that values growth and leadership
• The opportunity to make a direct, visible impact every day

A Quick Reality Check

This role is for someone who:

• Notices when something is off—and fixes it
• Doesn’t walk past problems
• Is just as willing to help a guest or teammate as they are to fix a broken system

If that sounds like you, we’d love to meet you.
