The casino is dedicated to delivering excellence not only in guest services but also in employee engagement, offering a work culture that values mission, vision, and core values, ensuring a supportive environment for career growth and teamwork.
This particular job opportunity is for a Kitchen Manager position within Muckleshoot Casino’s food service division. The role is pivotal in planning, directing, and supervising food preparation and kitchen operations in assigned outlets, ensuring that all culinary activities run smoothly and efficiently. The Kitchen Manager plays an integral role in staff development, menu design, inventory management, and adherence to sanitation and quality standards. This position requires hands-on leadership and operational oversight to guarantee that the kitchen maintains high standards of cleanliness, organization, and safety while delivering excellent food quality and customer satisfaction.
Employed on a full-time basis, the Kitchen Manager will enjoy a competitive salary starting at $63,118.64 annually, depending on experience, with discretionary performance bonuses awarded twice a year. The compensation package further includes comprehensive benefits such as fully paid medical, prescription drug, dental and vision coverage for employees, with competitive premiums for their dependents.

You will participate in scheduling, hiring, and training to maintain a productive and motivated team. Your role will demand keen attention to plate presentation, recipe adherence, and maintaining menu knowledge to ensure consistent food quality that meets the casino’s standards. You will also regularly conduct inventory checks to maintain appropriate par levels of supplies and tools, guarantee kitchen equipment is functioning properly, and ensure compliance with all local, state, and federal sanitation standards.
This role also requires flexibility, as you may need to assist with food production during busy periods, monitoring food flow and timing, while performing quality control measures such as tasting and testing food. The ideal candidate will uphold the casino’s mission and values, bringing experience, leadership, and dedication to support the culinary team and contribute to the business’s overall success.
