Job description

Join Tablespoon Cooking Co.'s Culinary Instructor Team!
Tablespoon Cooking Co. is looking for passionate culinary professionals to join our culinary instructor team!
What is Tablespoon Cooking Co.?
Tablespoon Cooking Co. is located at Findlay Market in the historic Over-the-Rhine neighborhood in Cincinnati, Ohio. Tablespoon specializes in hands-on cooking classes taught by professional chefs. We also offer private events and catering. Tablespoon teaches people how to cook by sharing tips and tricks from professional kitchens. We also provide entertaining events for corporate and social occasions. Our classes are fun and interactive and we pour beer and wine and play music, so it's a party, not just a cooking class.
What do Chef Instructors do at Tablespoon?

When all of the food is cooked, the guests will sit down to eat. Throughout class, we love to engage with our guests and create a personal connection. At the end of class, the team will work together to clean, break down the kitchen, and do the dishes.
We offer several core classes with standardized menus and recipes. Chef Instructors would be given this information and expected to lead the class accordingly. There are also opportunities to develop new classes, menus and recipes.
