Job Description



PREP COOK

J. Alexander's Restaurant is a contemporary American restaurant, known for its daily scratch-made wood-fired cuisine.

We strive to provide the highest-quality food and service in the hospitality industry, while fostering a culture of working hard, paying attention to details, and providing our guests with the best, all-around dining experience possible. We have immense pride in being a leader in the hospitality industry. It’s a part of the company’s DNA.

Our compensation is at the top of the industry, but life is more than a paycheck. A workplace needs to inspire both professional and personal growth while motivating their leaders to reach their goals. And you can find that with us.

Why Choose Us:

  • Competitive Compensation
  • Flexible scheduling
  • 401(k) with Company Match
  • Opportunity for Upward Growth

Requirements:

  • Must be 18 years of age to operate kitchen equipment.
  • Previous kitchen / culinary / chef experience is preferred, but not required.
  • Experience and knowledge of kitchen equipment including but not limited to knives, slicer, mixer, stoves, and ovens required.
  • Flexible to work a variety of shifts.

Job Description: Our restaurants operate professional, fast-paced, scratch kitchens. We hire line and prep cooks who understand high expectations for food presentation and execution. Our restaurants typically include an open-kitchen layout with visibility from the dining room. Coordination of designated positions requires strong communication and teamwork with other employees, including assembler, expo, and all members of management. This position is responsible for the execution of proper food recipes and following company specifications while maintaining a clean station and workspace. Proper sanitation protocols must be followed. Responsibilities also include opening duties and closing cleaning duties.

We are an Equal Opportunity / E-Verify Employer. This job description is not intended to be all-inclusive. As an SPB Hospitality Team Member you may be asked to perform additional related duties to meet ongoing needs.
