The Kitchen Manager position is a full-time role with a target salary of $58,000. This job involves managing kitchen staff including both cooks and dish room personnel, scheduling shifts, and creating daily specials menus that appeal to guests.

This position requires a proactive leader committed to upholding the highest standards of kitchen operations while ensuring a positive and productive work environment.
