Job Description
Hello Darling Flora is a dynamic and growing hospitality business operating multiple locations in Denver, renowned for its commitment to delivering consistently high-quality products and an exceptional customer experience. As a small but dedicated team, Hello Darling Flora prioritizes a culture of collaborative work and intuitive hospitality that ensures every interaction reflects genuine care and passion. The company values quality, efficiency, and innovation, setting the bar high in both food and beverage preparation to meet and exceed the expectations of their clientele.
The Lead Prep Cook role at Hello Darling Flora is a full-time opportunity designed for a proactive individual who is ready to take ownership of crucial kitchen operations across four bustling locations. At a competitive wage of $24 per hour, this position offers a chance to be part of a passionate team that values organization, cleanliness, and culinary creativity. The lead prep cook will be at the heart of the kitchen's daily operations, responsible not only for the preparation of various food and beverage components but also for managing inventory, coordinating production and distribution schedules, and assisting with menu development.
This role is ideal for seasoned kitchen professionals with at least two years of kitchen management experience and a food safety certification. As the lead prep cook, you will manage inventory control, create and monitor order lists, produce detailed production schedules, and ensure timely distribution of products across multiple venues. The position requires using your own vehicle for transporting goods to different locations, emphasizing the importance of reliability and organizational skills. Additionally, you will be involved in crafting syrups, beverage infusions, and small food items, all while maintaining a safe and clean kitchen environment in line with food safety standards.
Beyond logistics and preparation, the position demands a hospitality-first attitude and the ability to thrive in a fast-paced environment. Candidates should be calm under pressure, highly organized, and capable of working independently with minimal supervision. Collaboration is also key, as maintaining a supportive and team-oriented atmosphere is a core value for Hello Darling Flora. This role not only offers an exciting culinary challenge but also the chance to contribute to menu innovation and enhance the overall customer experience through diligent production and distribution management, making it ideal for those seeking growth and responsibility in food service management.
