Kitchen Manager

Run the kitchen at a new store, on a steady salary.

Know the basics are solid before you say yes: the pay, the schedule and the team behind you. Our new Roll Play in Falls Church opens Monday, November 2, and we need a Kitchen Manager. Then there is room to grow.

Roll Play is our Viet food concept. The store is at 116 N. West St, open daily 11 AM to 1 AM. You would run prep, the line, and our 48-hour pho broth and oxtail program.

What you will do

- Run prep, the line and the 48-hour pho broth program

- Order to par, and run daily ingredient counts from day one

- Keep the cold-unit logs

- Help run opening-week readiness and mock service

What you need

- You have led a kitchen at a fast-casual or full-service restaurant and trained cooks

- You order to par and do not run out of an item

- Food safety is a hard stop, and you can tell us about a time you caught something wrong and fixed it

- Toast and checklist tools, or you will pass the test on them in 30 days

Who should not apply: if you treat food safety or counts as optional, or blame the delivery when product runs short.

The honest part

New stores are busy and messy at first, and a 48-hour broth does not care what day it is. We will walk you through the real schedule before you say yes.

What we give back

- Pay: $75,000 per year, a steady salary paid on schedule

- Paid training and a paid working interview

- A free meal every shift and discounts at our sister restaurants

- 401K match, $1 for $1 up to 4%; health, dental and vision

- Check-ins twice a week and a written 30/60-day plan

- HEH Academy, plus paid courses and learning hours

- Over 80% of our leadership positions are filled internally. The path here runs to regional GM and to operating partner on the executive team
