MAKE YOUR IMPACT
Impact Kitchen is on a mission to empower our community to eat healthy,
nutritionally-dense foods with a focus on quality and sustainability. We know
that what you eat matters, and we seek to make an impact by choosing local,
ethically-sourced ingredients that will nourish you and help you thrive

catering and culinary programs and partnerships.
Impact Kitchen is always looking for enthusiastic, passionate, service oriented
team members to join our diverse team. If health and wellness is your passion,
if providing wholesome food and empowering others to make healthy choices drives
you, and if you are looking for opportunities to grow alongside a dynamic team,
then working with Impact might be a great fit for you!
COMMISSARY PRODUCTION TEAM LEAD
As a Commissary Production Team Lead (CPTL) at Impact Kitchen you set the
culinary standard high and are passionate to ensure guests enjoy their
experience through incredible food. You create delectable and consistent dishes
for dine-in and take-out guests, support back of house operations and partner
with your Commissary counterparts on the team.
Commissary Team Leads are highly flexible individuals responsible for
dishwashing, preparing and working both Hot and Cold line kitchen stations
supporting Impact Kitchen’s breakfast, brunch, lunch and dinner menu. As proper

food quality, and food freshness. This position is highly physical; therefore,
individuals must possess a strong level of physical stamina. Ideal candidates
are efficient, flexible, possess superior time management skills, are team
players, and thrive in a fast-paced environment.
