Weekend Cook

Resort Lifestyle Communities (RLC) is a fast-growing, family-owned company that takes pride in serving seniors across 60 plus communities nationwide. As a company, RLC is not just about providing services but is deeply committed to creating meaningful experiences and environments that truly feel like home for their residents. They operate in a beautiful, resort-style atmosphere designed to enhance the lives of seniors by promoting comfort, safety, and wellness. The company culture at RLC is built on strong Core Values: Respect, Honesty, Kindness and Compassion, and Service Excellence. These core values underscore everything they do and foster a close-knit, servant-hearted community among employees and residents alike.

Their mission is guided by four essential goals: Happy Employees, Happy Residents, Full Occupancy, and On-Budget Operations. This thoughtful approach speaks volumes about their dedication to both employee satisfaction and resident happiness, ensuring that the communities operate smoothly and efficiently with a high standard of quality.

The role available is for a Relief Cook who will primarily work on Saturdays and Sundays. This position plays a pivotal part in maintaining the high standard of dining experiences that RLC prides itself on delivering to all residents every day of the week. The Relief Cook is responsible for preparing meals in a scratch-based kitchen, including breakfast, lunch, and dinner as scheduled. This involves cooking a variety of proteins and vegetables by methods such as broiling, grilling, frying, and sautéing, always focusing on meals that are safely prepared, visually appealing, and portioned according to resident preferences.

Beyond meal preparation, the Relief Cook contributes to creating a welcoming and warm atmosphere by building positive relationships with residents, guests, and team members during weekend shifts. This role requires a nurturing and attentive individual who is dedicated to continuous improvement by actively participating in meetings, listening to feedback, and maintaining a consistent level of care and quality at the service line during meal hours. Maintaining kitchen cleanliness, safety, and organization is also a critical element of this position, as is ensuring that food supplies and stations are well-stocked and monitored to uphold sanitation and safety standards.

Candidates for this position must be at least 18 years old and be able to commit to working every Saturday and Sunday for at least 8 hours each day. While prior experience in kitchen preparation and cooking is preferred, RLC supports their cooks in obtaining the necessary food handler permits as required by local ordinances within two weeks of employment. This role is well-suited for individuals who are passionate about cooking, enjoy working in a team, and have a servant-hearted approach to supporting a residential community.

Joining RLC means becoming part of a company that genuinely values its employees with perks such as pay on demand and employee discounts, along with supportive leadership in an environment that feels more like a family than just a workplace. This is a purpose-driven role that gives cooks the opportunity to make a difference every day, contributing to the happiness and well-being of senior residents while advancing their own career in a rewarding setting.
