About Chateau Retirement

At Chateau Retirement, our kitchen is a real kitchen — and we take pride in it. We serve scratch-made, restaurant-quality meals to our residents three times a day, every day. We’re looking for a skilled Cook who loves the craft of cooking, takes ownership of their station, and wants to bring their talent somewhere it truly makes a difference. If you’ve got the skills of a restaurant cook but you’re ready for a better quality of life outside the kitchen, this is your place.

Same Skills. Better Life. Here’s Why Cooks Choose Us Over Restaurants:

  • Collaborate with kitchen and dining room staff to deliver smooth, timely service
  • Assist with receiving and rotating inventory as needed
  • Maintain a clean, organized, and well-stocked kitchen at all times

What We’re Looking For
  • 3+ years of cooking experience in a scratch restaurant, hotel, or commercial kitchen
  • Solid knife skills and working knowledge of various cooking techniques
  • Ability to manage prep and production in a fast-paced but organized environment
  • Current Food Handler’s Card or ServSafe certification and MAST (or ability to obtain upon hire)
  • Reliable, punctual, and a team player who takes pride in their work
  • A genuine interest in serving others — experience in senior living is a plus but not required
  • Pass a Department of Social Services background check
