Full-Time Kitchen Production Lead

We’re growing, and we’re offering something that can be hard to find in the food business: a full-time kitchen position with no holidays, no late nights, and a genuinely flexible work environment.

The Silver Shamrocks Cuisine is hiring a full-time Kitchen Production Lead.

We work hard and take tremendous pride in what leaves our kitchen, but we also believe people should be able to have a life outside of work.

First and foremost, this person must know how to cook. Strong culinary fundamentals, good instincts, and a genuine interest in food are essential. This is a hands-on kitchen position, not a role for someone who only wants to supervise.

Catering is not black and white. We plan carefully, but quantities change, timelines move, priorities shift, and unexpected needs arise. The right person will bring a can-do, go-with-the-flow attitude, pivot calmly, and focus on finding solutions.

This could be a wonderful opportunity for a culinary school graduate with strong fundamentals and a desire to learn, or for an experienced cook who is ready to grow into a leadership position.

We’re looking for someone who can:

• Prepare scratch-made food with skill and consistency

• Taste, season, and recognize when something is right

• Demonstrate solid knife skills and cooking fundamentals

• Scale recipes and manage high-volume production

• Turn production lists and event details into an organized plan

• Reprioritize quickly when the day changes

• Maintain quality, portioning, presentation, and food safety

• Guide others with confidence, patience, and humility

• Jump in wherever needed to help the team succeed

We can teach our menus, systems, and the way we do things. The right person must bring a culinary foundation, common sense, a strong work ethic, flexibility, and confidence without ego.

For the right person, this is a long-term opportunity with meaningful room to grow in responsibility and leadership as our company continues to expand.

This is a full-time position with flexible scheduling, no holiday shifts, and no late nights. A practical cooking skills assessment will be part of the interview process.

If you know how to cook, enjoy learning, stay calm when plans change, and want to become an important part of a growing food business, we would love to meet you.

Please send me a direct message with a brief introduction and résumé.

Come cook and grow with us!
