Job Description

Kitchen Manager – Scratch Kitchen | People-First Culture

We’re looking for a passionate Kitchen Manager who loves developing people, takes pride in scratch cooking, and thrives in a culture built on teamwork, respect, and growth.

This is more than just running a kitchen—it’s about building a team, coaching future leaders, and delivering food you’re proud to serve.

If you believe great food starts with great people and strong systems, this is the opportunity for you.

What You’ll Do

Lead a People-First Kitchen

Build, coach, and inspire a high-performing culinary team. Create a positive, accountable environment where team members are supported, developed, and set up for success.

Champion Scratch Food Excellence

Drive consistency and pride in a scratch kitchen environment. Ensure every dish reflects high standards in preparation, flavor, and presentation.

Own Kitchen Operations

Oversee daily execution including prep, line operations, cleanliness, and organization. Ensure the kitchen runs efficiently while maintaining a high level of quality.

Develop and Train Talent

Invest in your team through hands-on training, coaching, and mentorship. Help build bench strength and create clear paths for growth within the kitchen.

Drive Food Safety & Standards

Maintain strict adherence to food safety, sanitation, and operational standards. Lead by example and hold the team accountable to doing things the right way every time.

Manage Costs & Inventory

Control food cost, manage inventory, reduce waste, and ensure proper ordering and portioning practices that support a healthy business.

Why This Role Stands Out

  • Competitive salary + bonus potential
  • Comprehensive health benefits
  • 401(k)
  • Paid time off
  • Clear and accelerated growth opportunities
  • Best-in-class culture focused on people and development
  • Scratch kitchen environment with high-quality ingredients

What We’re Looking For

  • 3+ years of Kitchen Manager or culinary leadership experience in a high-volume, full-service environment
  • A true passion for food, especially scratch kitchens and quality-driven execution
  • Strong leadership skills with a focus on coaching and developing others
  • Deep understanding of kitchen operations, food safety, and sanitation standards
  • Proven ability to manage costs, inventory, and kitchen systems
  • Ability to thrive in a fast-paced, high-energy environment
  • Strong organization, communication, and problem-solving skills
  • Flexibility to work evenings, weekends, and holidays as needed

If you’re a leader who believes great kitchens are built through great people, strong culture, and a passion for food , we’d love to connect.
