Prep Cook (Seasonal)

Job Summary:

Take the bridge to the beach, and discover the Beach Lobster House. Part of the Linda Bean’s Perfect family, we’ll make you a Maine lobster meal you’ll want again and again, with succulent lobster you can taste, not buried in overwhelming seasonings or paired with inappropriate accompaniments. We’ll make it to your taste, even if only seasoned with our healthy Maine salt air!

Gather with friends every day at our community table, or choose a more private table. Select one of the decks for cool drinks, savory food choices, and relaxation over the water. With a takeout window also, from any direction—the Bridge or the Beach—we’re just a few steps away with fresh cooked lobster and Maine treats for the whole family!

You will take direction from the Chef to prepare items on the prep list, follow recipes, and contribute to the success of each meal service. You will work in a polite and professional environment as a team with other cooks, keep the kitchen orderly and clean, and take direction well.

Schedule will vary according to operational needs, but regularly includes evenings, weekends, and holidays and may include some overtime. Flexibility to work when the schedule requires will be very important to this position. The Ogunquit Beach Lobster House operates Sunday-Thursday 12pm-8pm and Friday-Saturday 12pm-9pm.

Qualifications:

-A positive, people-first attitude--our business depends on service with a smile.

-A can-do attitude and a willingness to pitch in wherever needed. We’re looking for self-starters who take initiative and pride in their work.

-Be a team player who works well with others, takes direction well, and is thoughtful and engaged.

-General knowledge of sanitation and general aspects of cooking and food preparation with solid knife skills.

-Availability through the month of November

-Ability to communicate in English both orally and written, and ability to understand verbal directions

What We're Offering:

-Competitive hourly salary of $13-16/hr depending on experience.

-Employee discounts and meals.

-Opportunity to work on the beach in beautiful Ogunquit, expanding your cooking skills and learning how to operate in a fast-paced kitchen.
