For over 35 years, CPK has built a vibrant culture centered around the philosophy of R.O.C.K.S – Respect, Opportunities, Communication, Kindness, and Service. This culture promotes a welcoming, supportive, and engaging environment where employees are encouraged to grow both professionally and personally. CPK takes pride in its diverse workforce and inclusive workplace where everyone has a seat at the table. The company places a high value on delivering excellent dining experiences, combining quality food with outstanding service.

As a Take-Out Specialist at CPK, you will be an essential part of the team responsible for facilitating a smooth and enjoyable take-out experience for customers. This role is perfect for individuals who thrive in dynamic and fast-paced environments, have a passion for food, and enjoy interacting with guests.

You will ensure that every order is prepared with precision and delivered promptly, providing customers with accurate wait times and taking payments securely. You will monitor the curbside pick-up area to greet guests promptly and ensure a seamless take-out experience. This role demands strong organizational skills, attention to detail, and a friendly disposition to maintain the quality of California Pizza Kitchen’s service even outside the dining room.

At CPK, the team thrives on fun, creativity, and passion for food. Employees are encouraged to express their individuality and team spirit while delivering superior service - the CPK High 5 values define the culture and are at the heart of every interaction.
