The Cooking team at Skechers is a vital part of the company’s operations, especially in locations providing food services to employees or customers. The role of a Cook at Skechers goes beyond simply preparing food: it is about ensuring that every menu item is meticulously prepped and plated according to specified recipes, with strict adherence to safety, sanitation, and food handling guidelines. This commitment to excellence ensures that every dish served is not just good but truly great. The Cook is expected to have a strong knowledge of cooking procedures, be capable of operating large cooking equipment such as pizza ovens, grills, and deep fryers, and handle knives and slicing equipment safely.
In addition to food preparation, the Cook will be responsible for maintaining cleanliness in the kitchen environment, including floors, equipment, and counters, using company-approved cleaning products. They will work closely with other team members to communicate inventory status, including items out of stock or low in quantity, and follow operational checklists to set up, stock, and close the kitchen efficiently. This position requires someone who can thrive in a fast-paced, high-temperature environment, manage stressful situations calmly, and follow both verbal and written instructions diligently. The role also demands physical stamina, including the ability to lift heavy items and stand for long periods while performing repetitive tasks.
Skechers values employees who are self-motivated and dedicated to their roles, following uniform standards and maintaining a clean, organized workspace at all times. The company also requires Cooks to hold a valid Food Handling Certificate as proof of their commitment to adhering to health and safety regulations. Working hours may vary, including nights, weekends, and holidays, and punctuality and reliability are essential components of this role. This employment opportunity offers a starting wage of $21.50 per hour and invites individuals who are passionate about food preparation, quality service, and teamwork to join the Skechers family. By joining Skechers, employees become part of a forward-thinking company that combines style, comfort, and quality with a supportive and diverse work culture.
