Job Description

Fresh Kitchen is a vibrant and community-focused restaurant brand dedicated to revolutionizing healthy eating by offering chef-inspired, customizable bowls made with fresh, high-quality ingredients. Founded on the mission to "share love" with local communities, Fresh Kitchen emphasizes wholesome nutrition by featuring fresh greens, perfectly seasoned rices, hand-cut roasted vegetables, and hormone and antibiotic-free grilled meats. Every dish is prepared from scratch, cooked with 100% olive oil, and served with 100% gluten-free menu options, reflecting the brand's commitment to health, sustainability, and inclusivity. Recognized as a destination for nutritious fast-casual dining, Fresh Kitchen combines speed and quality, inviting guests to build their own meals as fast as they can point, creating a unique dining experience that caters to the tastes and dietary needs of modern consumers.

Within this dynamic environment, the Dishwasher role holds an essential position in the Back of the House operations. Dishwashers at Fresh Kitchen are critical to maintaining impeccable food safety and sanitation standards that ensure the health and safety of both team members and guests. This role offers more than just a job; it provides an opportunity to be part of a fun, mission-driven team that values relationships and community impact. Dishwashers ensure that every dish, pot, pan, and utensil used in the kitchen meets the high standards necessary for food preparation and service. This responsibility includes operating dish machines at correct temperatures, using the proper detergents and sanitizers, and adhering strictly to Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) to manage hazardous chemical use safely. Maintaining a clean and organized workspace is fundamental to the role, helping to ensure efficient and safe kitchen operations.

Employees in this role benefit from competitive compensation ranging from $17 per hour to $22 per hour, alongside a supportive culture that promotes growth and development. Fresh Kitchen encourages team members to build new skills and offers perks such as free meals during work shifts, discounted meals on days off, and branded merchandise. The culture is inclusive, fun, and connected, with an emphasis on giving back to the community and the planet. Employees enjoy holidays off to spend quality time with loved ones and are encouraged to bring their whole selves to work through the company’s strong commitment to diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging (DEIB).

Ideal candidates for the Dishwasher position are 18 years or older, possess a passion for food and people, and are dependable team players with a strong work ethic.
