Job description

FOH Shift Leader - (Supervisor Front of House)

(Supervisor of Dining Room & Drive-Thru)

Chick-fil-A at Shepherdstown Crossing

219 Gettysburg Pike

Mechanicsburg, PA 17055

Who We Are:

Everyone's job at Chick-fil-A is to serve. No matter our title or job description, our reason for coming to work is to generously share our time and talents. Whether it's treating customers like friends, or serving our communities like neighbors, we believe kindness is a higher calling.

Our founder, Truett Cathy, made the decision to close on Sundays in 1946 when he opened his first restaurant in Hapeville, Georgia. Having worked seven days a week in restaurants open 24 hours, Truett saw the importance of closing on Sundays so that he and his employees could set aside one day to rest and worship if they choose — a practice we uphold today.

The Secret Ingredient is You:

Customers love Chick-fil-A® because of the Team Members who serve them. Team Members are encouraged to do the little things every day to make a difference for someone else: as simple as a smile or as inspired as running after a customer because they forgot a straw for their milkshake. And the cherry on top? A career at a Chick-fil-A Restaurant can have a wide range of benefits, including competitive pay, personal and professional growth opportunities, as well as the flexibility to thrive in and outside of work.
