THE OPTIMIST PASTRY COOK - UP TO $24/hr. (Germantown)

$33.28k - $49.92k
Part-time

The Optimist - Nashville

At Rocket Farm Restaurants, the core philosophy that defines our culture is “We serve the person who is serving the guest.” Our culture is not something we act out on the floor of the restaurant. It starts with how we treat and serve one another in the kitchen – with dignity, respect, and care. We believe there should be no difference in how we treat and serve one another in the kitchen and how we treat and serve our guests in the dining room. We hope you agree and will consider joining us!

The Optimist brings a menu of casual, wood-fired fare to Nashville’s Germantown neighborhood, transporting landlocked Tennesseans coast side to experience fresh, sustainably sourced seafood.

The Optimist is seeking an enthusiastic Pastry Cook to join our dynamic culinary team!

An Optimist Pastry Cook is responsible for executing the Executive Pastry Chef’s pastry, dessert, and bread recipes to ensure the highest level of quality and consistency. He/she must demonstrate a basic knowledge of recipe unit conversions and garde manger skills. He/she must take direction well and communicate effectively with team members, while managing their assigned station and maintaining a neat, clean, and organized back-of-house space. The ideal candidate must exercise quick problem-solving skills to resolve any issues that may arise. Apply today and become part of a dynamic, innovative, and heartfelt group of unique individuals!

Competitive pay - $16 to $24/hr. - based on experience and ability.

As a valued member of our team, you will receive:

A supportive culture and ethical work environment

Dynamic performance-based raises and promotions

Time off on most major holidays, including Thanksgiving, Christmas Eve and Christmas Day

Dining discounts at all Rocket Farm Restaurants - Atlanta, Charlotte, Nashville, Houston, Raleigh, and Winter Park

Rocket Farm University: specialized leadership classes and personalized support for career advancement

Employee-led Mentorship programs, Advisory Council and Safety Committee

Additional benefits after 1-year of employment:

  • Paid Time Off, Childbirth Recovery Leave and Parental Leave to support a healthy work-life balance
  • Major Medical, Dental, Vision, and Life Insurance
