With your attention to detail and passion for cooking, you play a key role in creating memorable dining experiences for our guests. The kitchen can be full of action and activity but you thrive in such an environment, while working safely and following the established protocols. You are a professional – knowing how much to order to stay in budget, how much to prepare based on the house count, how to keep a clean kitchen, and how to handle food safely.

If a Pantry/Prep Cook, you are responsible for all cold food items prepared in the kitchen, such as salads, cold appetizers, desserts, sandwiches, salad dressings, etc., so you have a major contribution to every meal. And, if the Breakfast Cook, you help our guests start their day with a hot meal and a smile – an important job.

Be a Team Player – The Cooks are responsible for the timely and accurate preparation of food items for all outlets and for maintaining a level of professionalism in the kitchen, working in harmony as a team so that the guest gets the food they ordered in a timely manner and leave happy.

Be an Everything Clean and Organized Fanatic – Professional Cooks know how to keep a work area clean and organized, following all sanitation and safe food handling procedures at every step.

Be a Safety & Security Agent – Following your hotel’s established safety and security policies & procedures. Anticipate problems and ask for management assistant as needed.
