We are seeking a vibrant individual who loves to cook, clean and who has a heart for ministry.

It is a salaried position with hours primarily on the weekends with paid holidays, vacation time and sick leave. Full health benefits are included. The chef prepares the meals for the retreat groups that do not rent the kitchen to prepare their own food. If there is an event requiring a meal, the chef is working accordingly. However, there are also many weeks that there will not be any cooking (preparation and cleaning are done during this time) so it is possible to get the hours in during the regular work week. It is a somewhat flex schedule based on the retreat center schedule, which we know well in advance what is taking place.

Essential Duties: Responsible for managing kitchen operations and maintaining the dining room, including but not limited to the following:
Ensure kitchen and operations are in compliance with appropriate health codes (we have a certified kitchen)

Pay will be based on experience. Food managers certification is required.
Flexibility, the ability to work well with a team, self-motivation and punctuality are a must.
