Job Description

Chili's is a renowned casual dining restaurant chain that was founded in Dallas, Texas, in 1975. Over the decades, Chili's has earned its reputation as a beloved destination for fans of Big Mouth burgers, house-smoked ribs, sizzling fajitas, and perfectly crafted hand-shaken margaritas. The brand's success is built on a core belief in exceptional service, authentic hospitality, and a commitment to giving back to the community. This legacy shapes Chili's identity today, making it a vibrant and dynamic place to work and dine. The company prides itself on creating a welcoming atmosphere where guests feel valued, and team members thrive in a culture of respect, cooperation, and fun.

Building open communication between staff and leadership is vital, as is championing change and new initiatives that drive restaurant success.

Additionally, Chili's Managers are committed to driving business results by effectively managing costs and following the restaurant's operational systems. They are involved in the full spectrum of team member development — hiring, training, retaining, and helping individuals grow into larger roles within the organization. They also play a crucial role in community engagement, promoting the brand and building relationships beyond the restaurant's walls. Moreover, they uphold stringent food safety standards to ensure every dish served aligns with the brand’s promise of food perfection.

This is a full-time position with an annual salary ranging from $67,000 to $73,000. The ideal candidate is a dependable team player who thrives in a fast-paced, multitasking environment and demonstrates a passion for hospitality. If you are eager to lead with heart and mind, foster teamwork, and be part of a fun yet focused culture, Chili's offers an exciting managerial opportunity to contribute meaningfully to a well-established brand known for delivering exceptional guest experiences and culinary delight.
