Pizza Line/Prep Cook

Ranch Pizza is opening in Hillsboro! We are looking to hire prep/line pizza cooks with open and weekend availability.
We are hoping to start training all new employees at the beginning of March, with a 2 week training process, and anticipate opening by the end of March.
We currently have locations in NE Portland, SE Portland, NW Portland, Oregon City, Happy Valley, Beaverton, the Moda Center (and soon to be Montavilla!) and are excited to be expanding outside of Portland.
Pay starts at $18.50/hr for BOH positions, with tips split evenly between both. At all of our other stores, tips typically range from $5-$12/hr. There's a 90-day review period and we offer subsidized health insurance for employees averaging 25 hours a week after 60 days of employment.

Typical line cookduties include:

- Topping and cooking par baked pizzas to order

- Prepping ingredients for the line

- Cutting, garnishing, and plating/packaging pizzas and sides for orders (expo)

- Assisting in dishwashing and food running as needed

Typical prepduties include:

- Following batch recipes to make sausage, ranch, sauce, etc.

- Using knife skills to efficiently cut pineapples, onions, mushrooms, etc.

- Being able to work the line and prep during the day

- Being able to run the counter when needed

Our ideal candidate would have the following traits:

• Incredible communication skills. Between Ranch ownership, Operations managers, our partners in each space and employees, there are a lot of people to communicate with and we feel it's vital to have clear lines of open and honest communication between all parties to work together well.

• Proactive problem-solving skills. Being able to adapt and learn on the fly when engaging with the daily challenges that restaurants throw at you while keeping a cool head will help you excel in this position.

• A knack for organization. Staying clean and organized really helps keep food quality up, waste down and employees sane. Building systems of clear expectations, organization and workflow are super important to be able to keep up with the demand while keeping costs down.

• A good palate and a passion for food. Pizza is about 70% baking, and we take great pride in our dough process. Even if our ideal candidate doesn't have pizza experience, they should have the desire to learn and even want to improve the process. Flavor is the key that sets us apart and knowing what good food tastes like is very important.

• A little hustle and the ability to laugh it off. We started making pizza because it was fun. We realize this is just a job, but we want someone who wants to be here and feel good about the work they put in. Happy employees make good pizza and having a positive attitude and motivational outlook really helps this process.
