Job Description

Description Culinary Assistant -
AKA Kitchen Sidekick & Mealtime Magician Position Type:
Full stomachs, full-time/part time Are you the type of person who knows the difference between a ladle and a lollipop, believes mashed potatoes deserve respect, and can turn a tray of green beans into a five-star experience (with a little seasoning and a lot of love)? Well then, aprons on—this job's for you. Your Mission (should you choose to accept it): As a Culinary Assistant, you'll be the right hand of our culinary team—serving up comfort, nutrition, and joy one plate at a time. You'll help prep meals and snacks, serve with a smile, and ensure that our residents are happily fed and well-nourished, all while keeping the kitchen so clean it would make your grandma proud.
What You'll Be Stirring Up:
Follow state food service regulations—because we like our kitchens compliant and delightful. Help whip up well-balanced meals that are both tasty and easy on the waistline (or at least on the dietary chart). Respect those special diet requests like they came straight from the Queen. ?? Serve food like a pro, using scoops, ladles, and just the right amount of flair. Ensure meals roll out on time. This isn't fast food, but we do believe in punctual peas. Say yes to seconds! Because sometimes one helping just isn't enough. Prepare snacks that'll make our residents' tastebuds do a happy dance. Keep the kitchen sparkling—walls, floors, and every little nook that might hold a rogue breadcrumb. Cover, label, and date food like it's going into a museum collection. Wash dishes like a champ (yes, even that one pot that somehow burned water). Monitor fridge and freezer temps like you're guarding a vault of gold (frozen peas count). Rock that hairnet like it's runway fashion. Clean, tidy, and food-safe is the name of the game. Take out the trash—literally, not emotionally. Requirements Your Recipe for
Success:
High school diploma or equivalent (because we believe in brains and biscuits). A current Food Services Sanitation certificate—don't worry, we like our food certified safe. At least one year of food prep experience, including therapeutic diets Multitasking superpowers. Good judgment and decision-making skills. (Like knowing not to serve spicy chili on Bingo night.) The ability to keep it cool under pressure—even when the oven isn't. Excellent communication and a warm, friendly vibe with residents, families, and your culinary comrades. Why Join the Bridgemark Family? At our facilities, meals are more than just food—they're moments of connection, care, and sometimes, a good ol' fashioned dessert debate. We're looking for someone who's ready to serve with heart, sprinkle in a little fun, and make our residents feel right at home. Sound like you? Throw your chef hat in the ring and apply today! Thank you for considering a career with a Bridgemark Employee Services, LLC facility. We appreciate your time, your talent, and your passion for making people smile—one plate at a time.
