Elevate your culinary career with Sodexo. At the Delta Sky Club inside Tampa International Airport, you’ll be part of a polished, professional kitchen delivering a premium dining experience to travelers who expect quality. We’re looking for cooks who take pride in their craft—people who move with purpose, care about presentation, and can keep up in a fast-paced, high-standard environment. If you’ve worked in strong kitchens and want something more refined and stable, this is a great next step.

What You Bring:

• 2+ years of professional cooking experience.
• Confidence working in a fast-paced, high-volume kitchen.
• Solid understanding of food safety and kitchen operations.
• Experience in upscale or hospitality-driven environments is a plus (hotels, lounges, catering, restaurants, private clubs).
• Reliable, detail-oriented, and team-focused.

What You’ll Do:

• Prepare and execute hot and cold menu items with consistency.
• Follow recipes and presentation standards.
• Maintain a clean, organized, and efficient workspace.
• Support buffet service and high-volume service periods.
• Contribute to a smooth, professional kitchen operation.

What Makes This Role Different:

• Work in a premium, first-class lounge—not a typical restaurant setting.
• Be part of a professional, well-supported culinary team.
• Consistent workflow with a focus on quality over chaos.
• Opportunity to grow within Sodexo’s nationwide network.

Benefits:

• Medical, dental, and vision insurance.
• Paid time off.
• 401(k).
• Career growth and advancement opportunities.

Sodexo is an EEO/AA/Minority/Female/Disability/Veteran employer.
