Pizza Cook

The Position:   We are looking for someone who has experience handling pizza dough (or similar dough) to join our team and anchor the pizza station as the only person stretching dough on-site at events and festivals. You must be able to open the dough extremely fast, and with ease, because we will will make hundreds of pizzas per day. Sound fun? it should for the right person. The right person, in this case, will be comfortable with dough in all kinds of conditions, as we will be working outdoors in all the elements. We need someone who can just feel the dough and open it up comfortably, and doesn't have to think about it. This job isn't for everyone, but the right kind of dough savants are out there and that's who we're looking for. 

The Company:   Bad Johnny's is a three-part business centered around wood-fired pizza: Full-time Kitchen inside The Long Room; Private Catering; Food Vendor at Large-scale Public Events and Festivals. Our pizza, a hybrid of two Roman styles, is entirely unique to Chicago. All of our ingredients and methods are the absolute best. Our service standards are also very high, as we aim to provide generous hospitality in everything we do and maintain professionalism at all times.
More about this position:   You will be paid $16/hour but after tips will earn anywhere from $25-35/hour. You will be hired as a Contractor, as the schedule varies week to week. The event schedule starts Memorial Day weekend and runs through mid-October, with events happening Fridays, Saturdays, and/or Sundays. This job is for someone looking to work part-time on the weekends during this period. Some of the days will be long (up to 10 hours), and you will be on your feet the whole time. But, it will also be A LOT of fun. We have a great group of people already that work very hard and also love what they do. This is a very unique opportunity to join us, and we are excited to meet you.
