We’re hiring a Program Chef to lead our work with Soledad Unified School District (SUSD)!
Since 2016, we’ve been redefining what it means to be a successful chef by partnering with institutional foodservice programs across the US. Our team brings the systems and solutions to help kitchens consistently and confidently prepare high-quality meals. Demand for our services is growing faster than ever.

• Cook more from scratch
• Elevate the quality and consistency of menu offerings
• Increase student satisfaction

As the Program Chef, you’ll work in SUSD on a full-time and year-round basis, collaborating closely with district leadership to plan and implement solutions in service of the above goals. Although the district will have ultimate authority over the program’s strategic direction, you’ll be a key player in driving change.

• At least 5 years of professional cooking experience in a non-institutional setting, including at least 2 years in a kitchen supervisory role (High-volume cooking experience is a plus.)
• ServSafe Manager certified or the ability to take a Brigaid-sponsored 8-hour ServSafe Manager course and pass the exam during your initial training period
• Successful completion of two background checks prior to your start date

PHYSICAL REQUIREMENTS:

• Ability to travel across sites in an efficient manner (with the possibility of carrying kitchen/culinary equipment during this travel)
