Job Description

Burgermaster is a locally owned and family-operated restaurant chain that has been serving its community since 1952. Renowned for its drive-in style service, the restaurant specializes in offering delicious, grass-fed beef burgers made from locally sourced ingredients. Positioned as a neighborhood family-oriented diner, Burgermaster seamlessly combines the comfort and warmth of a traditional dining experience with the efficiency and speed of fast food. This unique blend allows them to cater to a diverse customer base looking for quality food served promptly. With a presence across multiple locations, Burgermaster has grown into a fast casual restaurant group characterized by its innovative approach to dining and unwavering commitment to quality.

As a brand, Burgermaster prides itself on fostering a culture that promotes growth, continuous learning, and operational excellence. The company is currently expanding its footprint and is on the lookout for cooks who share their passion for the restaurant industry and are motivated to grow alongside the brand. The company offers employment on an hourly basis with wages ranging between $20 to $23 per hour, plus tips. This position is ideal for individuals who thrive in a fast-paced environment and who are eager to be part of a team that values dedication, professionalism, and a forward-thinking mindset.

The cook role at Burgermaster involves preparing and cooking food orders accurately and efficiently across various kitchen stations including the pantry, fryer, and other food preparation areas. Candidates will perform essential food prep tasks such as slicing, chopping, and cutting to ensure the kitchen operates smoothly.

Responding promptly and courteously to customer requests is also part of the role, emphasizing the importance of delivering excellent customer service in every interaction. The company expects flexible individuals who can work varying shifts, including nights and weekends, and who have the physical capability to stand for long periods, traverse all parts of the restaurant quickly, and occasionally lift up to 50 pounds.
