About the position

At Chipotle, we've created a better place to eat and work. Our mission is to cultivate a nourished community where wholesome food is enjoyed every day. We believe that food served fast does not have to be a typical fast-food experience. Chipotle has always done things differently, both in and out of our restaurants. We are changing the face of fast food, starting conversations, and directly supporting efforts to shift the future of farming and food. We hope you will join us as we continue to learn, evolve, and shape what comes next on our mission to make better food accessible to everyone. As a Crew Member, you will be part of a team that prepares real food by hand every day in our restaurants. We do not use freezers, microwaves, or can openers. We welcome both experienced restaurant professionals and novices alike, providing the training you need to feel confident working at any station, whether it be grill, cashier, prep, salsa, or expo. Our team takes pride in delivering exceptional customer service, and it is up to each member to create the friendly atmosphere that our customers expect and enjoy. We are always looking for passionate and enthusiastic people to join our team, regardless of prior experience. Chipotle offers a clear career path, with over 80% of our managers being promoted from Crew. Many employees start with the expectation of earning a paycheck but end up with a rewarding career. We provide exceptional training and support to help you grow within the company. If you are looking for a place where you can develop your skills and advance your career while being part of a team committed to cultivating a better world, we would love to meet you!
