The Nave Kitchen (located inside of PublicHouse in downtown Springfield) is hiring!
We are seeking a versatile, high-energy individual to join our team in a dual hybrid role. If you thrive in a fast-paced environment, possess strong culinary skills, and love interacting with guests, we want to hear from you!
Position Type: Part-Time
Shift/Schedule: Flex shifts (includes weekends and evenings as needed)
What You’ll Do:
• On the Line: Prepare, cook, and plate menu items according to established standards. Maintain a meticulously clean, organized, and safe kitchen station.
• At the Counter (FOH): Warmly greet guests, take orders accurately, handle point-of-sale (POS) transactions, and manage food pickup/counter service efficiently.
• Take Initiative: Actively look for tasks that need to be done during slower periods (e.g., restocking prep stations, cleaning, organizing inventory, wiping down counters) without waiting for explicit direction.
• Collaborate: Work harmoniously as a team across both the kitchen and front-of-house to ensure seamless service and communication.
What We Are Looking For:
• Proven Experience: Demonstrated, hands-on experience working both as a line cook and in a counter-service/FOH role. Excellent knife-handling skills and recipe execution are required.
• Proactive Mindset: A self-starter who takes initiative to get tasks completed efficiently.
• Team-First Mindset: A collaborative spirit who supports teammates during peak hours and maintains a respectful, inclusive workplace culture.
• Positive Attitude: Bringing a bright, optimistic energy to the team and an enthusiastic, guest-focused attitude to the front counter.
• Credentials: Valid Food Handler’s permit required (or must be obtained upon hiring). Ability to stand for long periods and multi-task under pressure.
• Dependable Transportation
