You are expected to foster open communication, influence positive behaviors, and uphold quality standards rigorously. From hiring and training new team members to retaining and developing talent within your group, you will be responsible for creating a high-energy, guest-focused atmosphere that encourages team members to excel.

Moreover, Chili's Managers are tasked with critical operational and financial responsibilities, including cost control, adherence to food safety protocols, and effective use of Chili's proprietary systems such as the Manager Timeline and Line Checks. Your ability to lead with both heart and mind makes a significant impact, balancing business objectives with the well-being and engagement of your team.
