Job description

Reports to: Operations Manager
Location: Dallas, TX
Type: Full-Time, Salaried
Role Overview
The Kitchen Manager is the on-the-ground operator for the Dallas market. This is a working kitchen leadership role - the Kitchen Manager directly runs day-to-day operations at the primary hub kitchen and maintains check-in oversight of two additional school locations in the market that have staff onsite and one additional drop-off location. The Kitchen Manager is accountable for food quality, kitchen team performance, production execution, and operational standards across all four Dallas schools.
Market Scope
Primary Hub Kitchen - Direct Management
  • Works alongside the Lead Cook and kitchen team daily - this is a working kitchen role, not supervisory-only
  • Owns bi-weekly cold batch production: plans, leads, and executes all cold batch runs at the hub kitchen
  • Leads hot prep days in partnership with the Lead Cook, setting the pace and standard for the team
  • Manages production scheduling, food quality, waste tracking, and inventory at the hub
  • Directly supervises kitchen staff and holds the team accountable to Yay standards

Two Additional Dallas Locations - Check-In Oversight
  • Delivers cold food to both additional Dallas schools twice per week
  • Uses each delivery as a structured site visit - directly oversees kitchen staff, checks standards, and addresses any issues in person
  • Manages the school relationship at each location: serves as the primary Yay contact for school staff and leadership
  • Supports Lead Cook development at each site through in-person coaching during delivery visits
  • Conducts daily check-ins with both locations on non-delivery days to confirm service is on track

Core Responsibilities
Daily Kitchen Operations
  • Runs hub kitchen from prep through service - production schedule, food quality, and on-time execution
  • Manages call-out coverage and real-time kitchen decisions during service hours
  • Ensures food is produced to Yay standards and delivered on time to spoke schools served by the hub
  • Serves as primary point of contact for school partners at hub location on day-of operational matters
  • Checks in with both additional Dallas locations daily to confirm service status and address any real-time issues

Labor & Scheduling
  • Sets the hub kitchen schedule within labor budget provided by the Operations Manager
  • Tracks actual hours versus scheduled hours daily; identifies and corrects overages
  • Approves any schedule changes or additional shifts at the hub kitchen
  • Reports labor performance to the Operations Manager as part of daily and weekly reporting

Food Quality, Waste & Inventory
  • Monitors and reduces waste at the hub kitchen - holds team accountable for portioning, FIFO, and end-of-day tracking
  • Confirms inventory counts are accurate and that pars are correctly set for the week ahead
  • Reviews waste reports from additional Dallas locations and flags concerns to Operations Manager
  • Upholds Yay food quality and safety standards at all three Dallas locations

Team Leadership
  • Provides direct leadership to Lead Cooks and kitchen staff at the hub kitchen
  • Supports Lead Cook development at the two additional locations through regular check-ins and site visits
  • Leads onboarding for new kitchen hires and sets standards for the Dallas market
  • Escalates performance or operational issues to the Operations Manager as needed

Day in the Life / Week in the Life
Daily - During Shift Hours
  • Present at the hub kitchen during service hours - managing production flow, team execution, and quality
  • Handles real-time issues: call-outs, equipment problems, service timing, and school-level escalations
  • Checks in with both additional Dallas locations to confirm service is running smoothly

Daily - End of Day Review
  • Reviews the day through the ops dashboard and daily reports after service closes
  • Sales vs. target: are all three Dallas locations hitting expected meal counts?
  • Labor hours logged vs. budget: did the hub kitchen run over, and why?
  • Waste reported by hub and additional locations: is it within acceptable range?
  • Sends a brief end-of-day summary to the Operations Manager on any flagged items - labor overages, waste spikes, service misses, or school concerns

Weekly - Ongoing Rhythm
  • Inventory review: confirms hub kitchen has submitted accurate counts and pars are set for the following week
  • Schedule audit: reviews Dallas hub schedule for the coming week to confirm labor hours are within budget and all roles are covered
  • Check-ins with both additional location Lead Cooks: brief call or structured Slack review to surface any issues and align on the week ahead
  • Waste debrief: reviews weekly waste totals across all three Dallas schools, identifies trends, and holds Lead Cooks accountable
  • Weekly update to Operations Manager covering labor %, waste, meal counts, and operational flags

What Success Looks Like
  • The hub kitchen runs smoothly every service day - on time, on standard, no surprises
  • Both additional Dallas locations are checked in with daily and any issues are surfaced early
  • Labor stays at or below budget across all Dallas locations, every week
  • Waste is tracked, understood, and trending down - root causes identified and addressed
  • All three Dallas schools receive food on time, at temperature, and to Yay quality standards
  • Lead Cooks at additional locations are supported, accountable, and growing in the role

What We're Looking For
  • 2-4 years of experience in kitchen or food production operations - you know how to run a shift, lead a team, and keep a kitchen on track
  • Hands-on cook and leader - you're comfortable working the line alongside your team and setting the standard through your own work
  • Experience with batch production, food safety, and inventory management - FIFO, portioning discipline, and waste reduction are second nature
  • Strong people skills - you've held people accountable, coached newer cooks, and built trust with a team
  • Organized and dependable - you manage multiple moving pieces daily and nothing gets dropped
  • Comfortable on the road - this role involves regular driving between Dallas locations; reliable transportation and a valid driver's license required
  • ServSafe certification or willingness to obtain within 30 days of hire
  • Must be based in Dallas or within commuting distance
What We Offer
  • $50,000 annual salary
  • A high-growth, mission-driven company where your work directly impacts what kids eat every day
  • A leadership team that values accountability, transparency, and operators who take pride in their craft
  • Real career growth as we expand into new markets and build out our kitchen leadership team
