- 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.
