- Assist with ordering, inventory, scheduling, and vendor relationships.
- Step into CDC responsibilities when needed, ensuring smooth, consistent execution.
What We’re Looking For

- Strong cooking background, ideally with pasta and wood-fired grill experience.
- Ability to lead calmly under pressure and maintain a positive, team-first culture.
- Passion for Italian flavors, seasonality, and building a career in leadership.
