- Oversee all training and development of new staff. Our “Pizza Cook” roles are often filled by young entry-level staff with an eagerness to learn. We hire for attitude and train for skills. Besides mastering our wood-fired oven and tossing dough, we don’t do anything too technically difficult in the kitchen. What matters most is a positive attitude, teamwork, organization, discipline, and putting care into everything we do.
- Exchange regular feedback with the Restaurant Manager about operations, kitchen needs, problems, updates, etc. We value a fluid system of communication within the management team.
- Eventually assisting with creating specials and helping to execute new menu items.
What’s in it for you?
Work in an independently owned restaurant that’s partnered with the best craft brewery in Nelson. We take what we do seriously, but we don’t take ourselves too seriously. As a leader, you will contribute to a positive work environment for the whole team.If we’re happy at work and care about what we do, that transfers to the food we put on the plate.
Comfy dress code. If it’s clean and tidy, an Eddyline T-shirt, closed toed shoes, and a hat are the only requirements.No cramped work spaces! We’ve got a spacious open kitchen where we prepare orders and a large prep kitchen too.
Because this is a new role, there will be opportunities for future advancement depending on your availability, skills, and interests.
This role works in tandem with the front of house manager (Duty Manager) on any given shift and reports directly to the restaurant owner daily.
This full time position requires a minimum of 30 hours a week. Previous experience working with pizza is helpful but not essential. Experience working in a kitchen and leadership abilities are important.
This role is best suited for an experienced cook interested in moving into a more leadership oriented role, or an experienced kitchen lead interested in moving to a role in a more casual and craft-focused environment that Pizza tends to offer.
