Founded in 1919, Woodbury Corporation stands as one of the oldest and most respected hospitality and real estate development companies in the Intermountain West. Headquartered in Salt Lake City, this privately-held company manages a diverse portfolio that includes hundreds of commercial and residential properties alongside several prestigious Marriott and Hilton hotel properties. Woodbury Corporation has built a remarkable legacy centered on the principle of "integrity over income," a philosophy that has guided its operations for over a century. This commitment to excellence is evident in its dedicated team of professionals who specialize in accounting, architecture, asset management, consulting, development, hotel management, legal affairs, sales, and leasing. The corporation's impressive history and comprehensive services make it a leader in the hospitality and real estate sectors.

We are currently seeking enthusiastic and motivated cooks to join our hotel kitchen team. This is an hourly, part-time position offering $14.00 per hour. The ideal candidate will be responsible for preparing delectable dishes that delight our hotel guests, ensuring taste, presentation, and timely delivery. This role is perfect for individuals passionate about culinary arts and eager to work in a fast-paced, dynamic environment. As a cook, you will engage in various food preparation tasks including chopping, peeling, and cutting ingredients, as well as cooking using different utensils and grillers. Attention to detail is paramount, as you will be expected to dress dishes attractively before serving and maintain a clean, organized kitchen.

Working at Woodbury Corporation means becoming part of a team devoted to superior guest service and operational excellence. Your role will include monitoring food quality and inventory, ensuring proper storage, and adhering to sanitation standards.
