Kitchen Staff Jobs in New Bern, NC

The Kitchen Staff are the backbone of the hospitality service industry, responsible for a broad range of duties. They ensure the smooth operation of the kitchen by preparing ingredients, cleaning and sanitizing kitchen equipment, assisting in food preparation, and maintaining stock levels of food and supplies. They are also responsible for maintaining high hygiene and safety standards in the kitchen to assure the quality of food served to guests. Additionally, they might be required to handle customer service related issues, such as taking orders, serving food, and addressing customer complaints.

To excel in this role, Kitchen Staff should possess a number of key skills and certifications. They should have a food handler's certificate, signifying they are trained in food safety practices. A good level of physical fitness and endurance is also important as the job involves standing for long hours and handling heavy kitchen equipment. Strong teamwork, time management, and multitasking skills are indispensable to cope with the fast-paced working environment. Prior to becoming a Kitchen Staffer, individuals may have roles like Wait Staff, Dishwasher, or Food Prep Assistant to gain relevant experience in the hospitality industry.
