Line Cook

Line Cook

More than a group of hotels, The LINE is a creative community built around a sense of discovery — an exploration of buildings, a neighborhood, and a culture. From Koreatown in LA to Adams Morgan in DC to downtown Austin, each property is architecturally interesting and chosen for its location in emerging neighborhoods in compelling cities. LINE hotels are both reflective and responsive—shaped by the communities they are part of while also contributing something new to those places. LINE properties are a collaboration of the best local and out-of-town talent in design, food and beverage, arts and culture. Our endeavor is to reflect the neighborhood, culture, and spirit of the city by offering a food and beverage program devoted to the bountiful ingredients offered in DC's Adams Morgan District. We are seeking Line Cook to join our team. A successful candidate will have a genuine passion for the hospitality industry and an entrepreneurial spirit.
