Lead a kitchen that matters.
Skillet Kitchens is looking for an experienced, take-charge Food Service Director to run the kitchen at Benton County Jail. You'll lead a team, manage a real budget, and make sure every meal that goes out the door is safe, on-spec, and on time. If you like ownership, structure, and knowing your work has a direct impact every single day, this is that job.
Requirements:What you'll do

- Manage inventory and vendor relationships
- Own the budget for food, labor, and supplies
- Hire, train, and coach your kitchen team
- Run performance reviews and enforce safety procedures
- Lead cleanliness and food-safety inspections
- Keep accurate, audit-ready records
- Build strong working relationships with facility staff
What you bring
- Comfort working in a secure corrections environment
- Solid food prep, cooking, and food-safety knowledge
- Willingness to obtain food safety certification
- Food service management experience — correctional setting a plus
- Working knowledge of nutrition and dietary guidelines
- Leadership chops: clear communication and people skills
Schedule
This role requires flexible hours as needed. You should be comfortable standing, lifting, and moving food supplies and equipment throughout your shift.
Why you'll want to stay
- Paid weekly — no waiting around for payday
- Paid Time Off
- Medical, dental, and vision after 60 days
- Holiday pay and paid bereavement leave
- Pregnancy and bonding leave
- 401(k) match after 6 months
- Uniform tops provided
- Tuition reimbursement
- Employee referral program
- Free $50,000 term life insurance policy
- Real internal promotion paths — we like to hire from within
About the sign-on bonus: $2,000, paid immediately upon hire. You'll keep it as long as you're still with us at the 90-day mark — if employment ends before then for any reason, the bonus is repaid.
This description covers the core of the role — day-to-day duties and requirements may flex a bit based on the facility's needs.
M/F/Vets/Disabled and other protected categories encouraged to apply.
