Want to Cook with Purpose? We're Looking for a Kitchen Leader Who Gets It.

We're not just looking for someone who can run a kitchen, we need a Culinary Manager who's ready to be a culture champion, team builder, and culinary innovator all rolled into one. If you thrive on collaboration, live for that perfect plate, and believe that great food starts with great people, let's talk.

<ul>
<li>Develop killer menus and recipes that honor our brand and wow our guests
</li>
<li>Coach, mentor, and support your culinary team so they feel like rockstars (because they are)
</li>

</ul>Build Something Bigger
<ul>
<li>Model our Purpose and Values every single day; you're not just managing a kitchen, you're building a culture
</li>
<li>Lead pre-shift &quot;take a knee&quot; meetings that are actually engaging (we promise, no boring lectures)

<li>Drive innovation by constantly asking &quot;How can we do this better?&quot; and then actually doing it
</li>
<li>Be the go-to person for the GM on everything culinary, production, and team morale
</li>
</ul>Make It All Work
<ul>
<li>Oversee recipe development, plating guides, and spec lists
</li>
<li>Monitor food quality, speed, and consistency across all service periods
</li>
<li>Ensure all health, safety, and sanitation standards are exceeded (not just met)

</li>
</ul>Who You Are

The Must-Haves:
<ul>
<li>Restaurant/culinary experience that matches this role (you've been in the trenches)

<li>Computer literate: Word, Excel, Outlook are your friends
</li>
<li>English fluency and solid math skills (Spanish is a huge plus!)
</li>

<li>Flexible schedule and reliable transportation
</li>
</ul>The You-Haves:
<ul>
<li>You walk your talk and honor your craft
</li>
<li>You're a natural coach who builds people up, not tears them down
</li>
<li>You embrace accountability; you do what you say you'll do, and you raise your hand when you need help
</li>
<li>You communicate with dignity, equity, and respect (even when the tickets are flying)
