Job description

Description

At Steel City Pizza Company, we believe great prep cooks don’t need to be convinced that their work matters — they already know it does.

If you already believe great food starts with preparation done right, we want to meet you.

If you take pride in setting others up for success, enjoy working with your hands, and understand that consistency is everything, you’re probably who we’re looking for. We can teach recipes, prep lists, and systems. We can’t teach care, focus, or follow-through.

This role is for someone who understands that great service and great food start long before the first order is fired.

Who You Already Are

You like things done the right way. You pay attention to details, follow standards, and understand that accuracy matters — because the whole kitchen depends on it.

You enjoy preparing food that others will turn into something special. You stay organized, work steadily, and take responsibility for your space.

You don’t wait to be reminded what needs to be done. You see it — and you handle it.

What We Value

We value people who act like owners, not renters — who respect the process, the team, and the food. People who take pride in doing foundational work well, every single day.

What You’ll Get

A professional kitchen where standards matter. Leadership that respects consistency and effort. A team that understands how important your role truly is.

Requirements

What You’ll Do

• You’ll prep ingredients according to Steel City Pizza Company recipes and standards.
• You’ll label, store, and organize food properly so the kitchen is always set up for success.
• You’ll keep your prep area clean, stocked, and efficient.
• You’ll follow food safety procedures, minimize waste, and communicate clearly with the kitchen team.
• You’ll take ownership of prep from start to finish — knowing your work makes everything else possible.
