Cook/Kitchen Coordinator

Have some kitchen chops? Looking for extra hours and the dependable wage that goes with it? Sundays that dont start too awful early and gets you home in time for football? And only one regular night per week, Wednesday? Easy summers? Ditch the long breakfast/brunch/lunch shifts every Sunday and come enjoy some easy company! English Lutheran Church is looking for one dependable Cook/Kitchen Coordinator to prepare, oversee, and breakdown/cleanup our Sunday Coffee Fellowship and Wednesday Night Meals, along with overseeing basic needs of the kitchen such as getting groceries, ordering supplies, and keeping things clean and running smoothly. Sundays are very straight-forward: coffee prep and set-up of the fellowship service - snacks and treats need to be trayed and put out along with the coffee, lemonade, and water for members to enjoy in fellowship between services. Then, just break it down, wipe it down and make short work of it. Sundays are year-round with allowance for occasional weekend off. Wednesday nights is light-duty meal prep for approximately 75 people. Generally, we are looking for a simple well-rounded dinner that is appealing (especially for kids). This can be more elaborate if you wish to make it so, while working within the budget. Bring your imagination and skills! (Soup & salad, baked potato bar, pasta bar, breakfast for dinner, etc.) Sunday hours are approximately 7:30-11:30am. Wednesdays generally begin 2-3:00pm to 8:00. During the school year, hours average 12-15 a week, and summers are minimal - maybe 5 hours a week. Occasionally, we have additional church events or outside groups that need meal service or simply supervision as they prepare meals. You will have the first opportunity for those hours as well. Wednesday meals are not served during summers and the Sunday fellowship begins later to accommodate our single Sunday service, so youd have an easy summer! Responsibilities: Prepare and cook a variety of meals. Operate kitchen equipment safely and efficiently, including knives and other cooking tools. Help train and mentor volunteers in food preparation techniques and kitchen protocols. Rotate and store food supplies. Wash pots, pans, dishes, utensils, or other cooking equipment. Apportion and serve food to facility residents, employees, or patrons. Clean and inspect galley equipment, kitchen appliances, and work areas to ensure cleanliness and functional operation. Clean, cut, and cook meat, fish, or poultry. Take inventory of supplies and equipment. Requisition food supplies, kitchen supplies, based on estimates of future needs. Plan menus that are varied, nutritionally balanced, and appetizing, taking advantage of foods in season and local availability. Create menus and spending to ensure that meals are prepared economically. Compile and maintain records of food use and expenditures. Monitor and record food temperatures to ensure food safety. Join our team and contribute your culinary expertise to create delicious meals that nourish our church community! Requirements: Previous experience as a Cook or in a similar role within food service is preferred. Strong culinary skills with the ability to follow recipes accurately. Excellent organizational skills and attention to detail in food presentation. Ability to work collaboratively with volunteers of differing skill sets while maintaining high standards of hygiene and safety.
