THE ATMOSPHERE
The Easterly St. Thomas is a waterfront dining oasis offering innovative craft cocktails and wood-fired cuisine representative of the rustic Caribbean.

THE IDEAL MATCH
Great food starts long before the restaurant opens, and at The Easterly, our Prep Manager serves as the essential backbone of our culinary foundation.

This concept is not just a restaurant – but a destination that blends music, sunshine, innovation, and top-tier hospitality into unforgettable moments. We’re laid-back but dialed-in. Professional but never stuffy. Every guest is welcomed like family—and we take that seriously.

  • Work alongside the line and culinary team to keep prep stations fully stocked, organized, and ready for high- volume service.
  • Move with speed and precision without ever compromising on quality.

  • Able to take constructive criticism, learn quickly, demonstrate leadership, and constantly improve.
  • Promote, work, and act in a manner consistent with the mission of Ballast Hospitality, always setting a professional example.
  • ​English and Spanish fluency preferred but not required.
