Team Leader

Are you a natural leader, or are you looking to develop your skills as a leader? Wendy's is offering you the opportunity to learn leadership skills as a Team Leader. Maybe you have never been in a leadership role but would like to learn. Let us help!

Do you prefer daytime or morning shifts? Or maybe you are a night owl and prefer the evening and late-night shift? Wendy's has a great opportunity for you to learn practical leadership skills while earning money.

The stuff you want - like fun people, quality food, a schedule to meet your needs, and a paycheck - done. Our founder Dave Thomas had three rules for everyone who works here: Do the right thing. Treat people with respect. Make food better than they'd expect from a fast food place. No doubt you do the first two already. We can teach you the third!

Sounds good? Keep reading.

Our burgers are square, which means we don't cut corners. So hopefully, neither do you.

• Your natural friendliness is just one of your talents.
• You can handle a lot of stuff and not wig out.
• You're good with being on drive-thru one shift and making fries the next.
• You like making customers happy. For real.

What you bring to the table:

• Desire to grow and learn leadership skills
• Solid social skills - you act like your grandma is standing behind you (at least while you're at work).
• You see whatever's low - ketchup, straws, cups - and you fill it back up.
• You pitch in and help your crew and customers.
• You take and receive direction like a pro.
• You want to learn something new and be a part of something good.
• If something doesn't seem right, you make it right.

You must be willing and able to:

• Stand and move for most - if not all - of your shift.
• Lift up to 25-50 lbs. now and then
• Handle weather related moments like rain at the drive-thru, taking out trash in the summer, etc.
• Wear a headset, use other restaurant equipment such as a register or grill, and follow brand standards and guidelines.
• For more information on specific equipment or job requirements, see the job description or talk to the hiring manager.

We get it. We get you.

The Wendy’s Story
First of all, yes, Wendy is a real person, and a pretty special one, being the daughter of our founder Dave Thomas. Today, she is one of the most involved and successful franchise owners in the Wendy’s enterprise. We think Dave would be proud. Back in 1969, he looked around at all other hamburger joints and was like, “Nah. People deserve better.” At the time, other quick-service restaurants were using frozen beef and mass-producing food. Not Dave! His approach of serving fresh, made-to-order hamburgers changed the game. He didn’t-stop & wouldn’t-stop his commitment to making customers happy, that drives everything we do today.
