Parent Shift Team Member
Hospitality or Kitchen
Work While They're at School. Be There When They're Home.
At Chick-fil-A, we recognize that parents and caregivers bring something incredibly valuable to the workplace: maturity, reliability, life experience, care, and a strong sense of responsibility.
We also know it can be difficult to find meaningful work that fits between school drop-off and school pick-up.
That's why we've created our Parent Shift — a part-time Team Member position designed around the traditional school day.
Our team needs dependable, high-character individuals during our busy daytime hours. Whether you enjoy creating remarkable experiences for guests in Hospitality or prefer working behind the scenes with our Kitchen Team, we have opportunities for you.
This is an opportunity to earn additional income, build relationships, and be part of a meaningful workplace — while still being there when your kids get home from school.
The Parent Shift
Typical availability for this role is approximately:
Monday–Friday | 8:30/9:00 AM – 2:00/2:30 PM
Exact start and end times may vary based on your family's school schedule and the needs of the restaurant.
This position is designed for individuals who can provide consistent weekday availability during the school year.
We also understand that school schedules change throughout the year. School breaks, holidays, and summer availability can be discussed as part of this position.
