Job Description

Jim N Nicks Bar-B-Q is a well-established restaurant known for its authentic Southern barbecue and a commitment to serving fresh, high-quality food made with passion.

The company prides itself on strong core values, emphasizing honesty, respect, commitment, discipline, and support, creating a workplace culture where everyone works together towards common goals. Employees enjoy not only competitive pay but also flexible schedules, discounted meals, and a supportive community that treats every team member like family.

The available position at Jim N Nicks Bar-B-Q is ideal for individuals with prior experience as a Line Cook, Expediter, Prep Cook, or Fry/Salad Chef who are passionate about food, hospitality, and serving their community. As a member of the Back of the House team, employees will engage in food preparation and cooking that requires teamwork and dedication. Unlike some kitchen roles that involve working with freezers, this position focuses on fresh food preparation made with pride, reflecting the restaurant’s commitment to quality and local flavor. The work environment is fast-paced but upbeat and exciting, perfect for candidates who thrive in energetic culinary settings.

This role offers an hourly wage between $14 and $17, making it competitive in the restaurant industry. In addition to pay, employees have the opportunity for career advancement within the company. Eligibility for medical, dental, vision insurance, 401K plans, employer-paid life insurance, and vacation benefits is provided, demonstrating Jim N Nicks’ commitment to supporting its team members beyond the kitchen. Additional benefits include participation in a Life Assistance Program and access to a Team Member Assistance Fund, helping staff navigate life’s challenges with support from their employer. This position requires physical stamina, as duties involve bending, lifting up to 50 pounds, reaching, turning, and standing for extended periods, but reasonable accommodations can be requested.

Overall, the Back of the House role at Jim N Nicks Bar-B-Q offers more than just a job; it promises a chance to be part of a family-oriented culture that values integrity, kindness, and dedication. Team members are encouraged to bring their positive attitude and passion for guest service to a workplace where their efforts make a genuine difference.
