Job Description

Resort Lifestyle Communities (RLC) is a fast-growing, family-owned company with over 60 communities nationwide, dedicated to providing exceptional living experiences for seniors. RLC is guided by core values that emphasize respect, honesty, kindness, compassion, and service excellence. These values reflect the company’s commitment to creating a warm and welcoming environment where employees and residents alike thrive. The company’s mission is centered around achieving four essential goals: happy employees, happy residents, full occupancy, and on-budget operations. This focus ensures that every member of the community feels valued and supported, and that the business operates efficiently to continue delivering high-quality services.

As a resort-style senior living community, RLC cultivates a supportive leadership culture and an environment that encourages personal and professional growth. Employees at RLC are part of a servant-hearted community, where teamwork and compassion guide daily efforts. The company strongly believes in the importance of making a difference every day, creating a workplace where individuals can bring their best selves and contribute meaningfully to the quality of life for the residents they serve.

About the Role

The PM Cook position at Resort Lifestyle Communities plays a vital role in delivering exceptional meal experiences for senior residents. This role involves preparing lunch and dinner in a scratch-based kitchen, where all entrées and sides are made fresh to ensure the highest quality. The PM Cook is responsible for safely and efficiently preparing a variety of proteins and vegetables using cooking methods such as broiling, grilling, frying, and sautéing. Attention to detail is key, as each plate must be visually appealing and portioned according to resident preferences.

Beyond cooking duties, the PM Cook is also instrumental in fostering a warm, inviting dining atmosphere by building positive relationships with residents, guests, and fellow team members. This role requires commitment to upholding strict safety and sanitation standards in the kitchen, including maintaining cleanliness and monitoring food temperatures. The PM Cook must also participate in continuous improvement efforts by contributing ideas, staying open to feedback, and working collaboratively with teammates.

Scheduling for this role is Thursday through Monday before lunch through dinner, with occasional shifts in the morning as needed. Candidates must be at least 18 years old and able to read, speak, and understand basic English. While experience in kitchen preparation and cooking is preferred, it is not mandatory, as the company provides support for new team members to succeed. Food handler permits must be secured within two weeks of employment as required by local ordinances.

This full-time role offers competitive compensation and a comprehensive benefits package, including health, dental, and vision coverage, life insurance, short- and long-term disability, flexible spending accounts, accident and hospital indemnity, legal and identity theft protection, paid time off, and a 401(k) plan with employer match. Employees have access to a $341 benefit stipend per pay period to apply toward their preferred benefits. RLC values team members who bring their servant hearts and dedication to a place that feels like family, welcoming individuals ready to make a meaningful contribution every day.
