The Opportunity:
Are you a creative thinker with a proven track record of growing sales? Do you thrive in fast-paced environments and have a passion for connecting with people and making an impact in your community? If so, we want you as our Director of Sales Growth & Marketing at Chick-fil-A Bucktown!
In this hands-on role, you’ll lead both the restaurant’s daily operations and the marketing efforts that drive growth. You’ll partner with the Owner/Operator to develop and execute sales strategies, build exciting promotions, and foster relationships that boost sales and brand loyalty.

If you’re passionate about marketing, have a solid sales growth background, and enjoy being part of a high-energy team, this is the opportunity you’ve been looking for!
