Job description

Kitchen Manager — New Country Concept Opening Soon! ???????? Rock, WV | Full-Time | $50,000–$60,000/year

Roll up your sleeves — we're firing up something special in the hills.\


A brand-new restaurant concept is opening its doors in Rock, WV, and we're hunting for a Kitchen Manager who knows their way around a scratch kitchen and isn't afraid to get a little dirt under their nails. Think hearty, honest, made-from-scratch food, ingredients sourced from the folks and farms right down the road, and a backwoods atmosphere where good food and good company are the whole point.

If you can run a tight line, lead a crew like family, and you believe a meal made from scratch beats anything out of a freezer bag — keep reading. This one's for you.


What You'll Be Cooking Up (Your Day-to-Day):

  • Running the heart of the house — kitchen operations, prep, line, and everything in between
  • Leading, hiring, training, and scheduling a kitchen crew that takes pride in the plate
  • Keeping our scratch kitchen humming: recipes, consistency, and quality on every ticket
  • Building relationships with our local vendors and farmers to keep ingredients fresh and seasonal
  • Managing food costs, inventory, ordering, and waste like it's coming out of your own pocket
  • Owning health, safety, and sanitation standards — a clean kitchen is a happy kitchen
  • Helping shape the menu and bring a brand-new concept to life from the ground up

What You'll Bring to the Table:

  • Real kitchen leadership experience (Kitchen Manager, Sous Chef, Exec Chef, or strong Lead Cook ready to step up)
  • Scratch-cooking chops — you understand that "made from scratch" is a promise, not a buzzword
  • A cool head under pressure and a knack for rallying a team during the dinner rush
  • Solid grasp of food cost, ordering, and inventory management
  • ServSafe certification (or willingness to get certified)
  • A genuine love for hospitality and small-town, community-first dining

What's In It For You:

  • Competitive salary of $50,000–$60,000, based on experience
  • The rare chance to help launch a brand-new concept from day one and put your stamp on it
  • A supportive ownership team that treats staff like family
  • A workplace with real character — backwoods charm, a sister campground, and a community that shows up

Ready to lead the line? If you're a hands-on kitchen leader who's ready to build something from scratch (literally and figuratively) in a one-of-a-kind setting, we'd love to hear from you. Apply today and let's get cooking. ????
