Collaboration & Inventory

What You Bring

  • Solid kitchen chops—especially with baking and prep systems
  • Clear, calm leadership—even when it's busy
  • Obsessed with systems, timing, and consistency
  • A guest-first mindset and team-first attitude
  • You live our values: Reliable, Respectful, Efficient, Credible, Artistic, Timeless, Fair

Perks

  • Competitive pay
  • Shift meals & café discounts
  • Growth & leadership opportunities
