Job Description

Rosati's Pizza is a renowned Chicago-based, family-owned Italian food and pizza restaurant that has been a staple in the community since its founding in 1964 by Dick, Ron, and Al Rosati. Known as "Chicago's Greatest Thin Crust Pizza," Rosati's Pizza prides itself on combining authentic Italian recipes with genuine, heartfelt service. The company is deeply rooted in family values, work ethic, and teamwork, creating a warm and welcoming environment for both its customers and employees. With a strong presence in the Chicago suburbs and an expanding reach across the United States, Rosati's Pizza has grown into a beloved brand that continues to spread the legend of its delicious food and exceptional hospitality.

Most Rosati's Pizza locations are independently owned and operated by entrepreneurial franchised operators. This structure allows local franchisees to tailor their operations to the communities they serve while maintaining the high standards and family-oriented culture that Rosati's is known for. The company offers a variety of team member positions, including front-of-house, back-of-house, and leadership roles, providing a wide array of opportunities for those interested in building a career in the restaurant industry. Rosati's commitment to serving guests and supporting communities is at the heart of what they do, emphasizing the importance of people in creating a positive and productive workplace.

The Pizza Cook position at Rosati's Pizza is an exciting opportunity for individuals who have a passion for great food and enjoy working in fast-paced, team-based environments. As a member of the kitchen staff, you will be responsible for preparing and baking pizzas using Rosati's time-honored family recipes, including their signature thin crust, double dough, and Chicago-style deep dish pizzas. This role is perfect for someone looking to either launch or expand their career in the restaurant industry, as previous restaurant experience is preferred but not required. Rosati's provides comprehensive training, so new team members will learn everything they need to succeed and thrive.

In this role, you'll be actively involved in maintaining the quality and consistency that Rosati's customers expect. The job involves preparing pizzas from both the menu and custom orders, handling various doughs, assisting with line-cook tasks as needed, monitoring food stock, and ensuring cleanliness and sanitation of the cooking station and equipment. Given the physical demands, candidates should be ready to work on their feet for most of their shift, withstand warm kitchen temperatures, and participate in various physical activities such as reaching, bending, kneeling, and moving throughout the facility.

Rosati's Pizza offers competitive hourly wages ranging from $11.00 to $15.00 per hour, a friendly and team-oriented environment, and excellent opportunities for growth within the company. Joining Rosati's means becoming part of a family that values authenticity, quality, and service and is consistently recognized among the best in the industry.
