  • Work along with the chef in costing recipes and implementing the SOP for use. Train employees on the use of the recipe.
  • Send site-wide notifications about daily menus.

Training & Development

  • Train staff on portioning, FI-FO, production procedures, company procedures, etc.
  • Promote best practices for waste reduction, stock rotation (FIFO/FEFO), and operational efficiency.

  • Excellent communication and team collaboration skills.
  • Cultural awareness and the ability to work respectfully with Indigenous and Inuit team members.
  • Familiar with the MS Office platform with a focus on MS Excel and PowerPoint.

Required Qualifications:

  • Progressive experience in kitchen roles, preferably in hospitality, camps, or industrial/remote environments.
  • WHMIS, Food Safe certification or familiarity with hazardous material handling is considered an asset.
