Job Description

Kitchen Manager - Scratch Kitchen, Polished Casual

The best kitchen managers we know want three things: a menu worth cooking, a team worth leading, and a company that does not burn them out. This Aurora restaurant offers all three.

A national, full-service polished casual brand is hiring a Kitchen Manager for its Aurora, Colorado location. Everything is prepped and cooked from scratch, the menu is focused so consistency is achievable, and the Kitchen Manager runs the back of the house as a true partner to the General Manager.

What you will own

• The line and the prep list. Execution, plating standards, and consistency on every shift.
• Your cooks. Hire people who take pride in the craft, train them well, and keep them.
• The back-of-house numbers. Inventory, ordering, food cost, and kitchen labor for a $3M+ restaurant.
• Food safety and sanitation, ready for any inspection on any day.
• A tight working relationship with the front of the house so the restaurant runs as one team.

What they are looking for

• 3+ years of kitchen or culinary management in a scratch kitchen
• Experience with national full-service brands or polished regional groups
• Stable work history. Two jobs in the last five years is the rule.
• A hands-on, steady leadership style that holds up at volume
• Pride in what goes out the window

What you get

• $60K-$70K base plus a bonus that pays up to $8K
• Medical, dental, and vision benefits
• 401(k)
• Paid time off
• A clear path to General Manager. This brand promotes its KMs.
• A culture that values your time outside the restaurant

If you are a strong KM, or a Sous Chef ready to run the kitchen, we would like to hear from you.
