Driftwood Hospitality Management is a distinguished leader in the hospitality industry, recognized for its comprehensive and integrated approach to hospitality services. The company prides itself on delivering exceptional client service and fostering a culture where associates are empowered to take initiative, be proactive, and contribute to the success of their properties through well-defined strategies and objectives.

Driftwood Hospitality Management operates a variety of hotels and hospitality venues that emphasize quality, service, and a positive guest experience. The company promotes a workplace environment that values diversity, inclusion, and equal opportunity for all employees.

In pursuit of maintaining the highest standards in food quality and safety, Driftwood Hospitality Management is seeking a dedicated and skilled Broiler Cook to join their culinary team. This role is integral to the daily operations of the hotel’s food service, responsible for the preparation, setup, production, and quality control of all meat, fish, fowl, and other food items cooked on the front line station. The Broiler Cook must follow established recipes and preparation guidelines to ensure consistency and excellence in every dish served.

This position requires adherence to strict health department regulations, maintaining cleanliness, equipment upkeep, and safety protocols while handling food items.

This role also entails physical demands such as lifting heavy food products, performing duties in extreme temperatures, and maintaining stamina for long periods of standing and movement within a confined kitchen environment. Driftwood Hospitality Management offers a competitive benefits package including health insurance, 401(k), disability and life insurance, paid time off, and employee discounts.

Joining Driftwood Hospitality Management as a Broiler Cook means becoming part of a dynamic team committed to hospitality excellence and personal career growth within a supportive and engaging atmosphere.
