We're looking for an enthusiastic, creative, Head Chef / Kitchen Manager to join the team at Folding Mountain Brewing. Located in the heart of the Canadian Rockies, we're a thriving brewery and brewpub where great beer, great food, and great people come together.

This is more than just a kitchen job. You'll be part of a fun, passionate team that takes pride in creating memorable guest experiences. And when the workday is done, the mountains, trails, and incredible outdoors are right at your doorstep.

We're looking for someone who brings more than just kitchen skills to the table. We want personality, creativity, leadership, and a genuine passion for great food. We have an established menu and a strong foundation to build on, but we're excited to find someone who can bring fresh ideas, put their own stamp on our offerings, and help take our kitchen to the next level.

We are also home to Juniper Pizza Pies which is a seasonal pizza trailer that operates in our beer garden. It offers a small variety of pizzas which our patrons can order at the trailer and pick up. Launched in 2021, it has already established itself as a top pizza offering in the area.

Duties:

-Oversee all kitchen operations for the taproom and Juniper Pizza Pies; this includes staff scheduling and ordering of food and supplies

-Work with FMB leadership team to develop and implement seasonal menus

-Ensure consistent food preparation and presentation

-Maintain product levels and records of all food costs, sales and inventory

-Oversee kitchen safety,



cleanliness and sanitation

-Work with the General Manager to attract, recruit and retain staff

-Train and mentor all kitchen team members through hands-on leadership

-Ensure all AHS guidelines are met A typical year at FMB follows the four seasons. While we are open year-round, the summer high season runs from June through September, and is our busiest time, when we are most in service to both Canadian and International tourists. In the summer, we have a full staff of both seasonal and permanent employees.

We do our best to give everyone two days off in a row each week. In the summer, however, these days cannot be guaranteed. Flexibility and down time come in the shoulder seasons.

FMB would not have built the reputation it has today if not for truly excellent staff, past and present. Members of our team have strong work ethics, positive attitudes and are committed to providing memorable experiences for every single guest. To that end, it is important that staff members are cheerful, friendly, and skilled.

If you believe this describes you, and you believe you would enjoy your time here and thrive, we welcome you to apply to continue with the hiring process.
