Who You Are:
  • 5+ years culinary leadership experience, ideally across multiple formats

  • Experienced in recipe testing, costing, and scaling

  • Ready to help build something new with a startup mentality

  • Skilled communicator, mentor, and collaborator

Why Farm to People?
  • Mission-driven company focused on food transparency and sustainability

  • Work with clean, fresh, local ingredients from top farms and makers

  • Health, dental & vision insurance (up to 80% covered)

  • Paid vacation, holidays, and generous staff discounts
