Exceptional Hospitality Starts with You

Picture yourself brightening someone’s day. When you join the DoubleTree by Hilton Burlington team, that is exactly what you will do each time you come to work.

As a Cook, you’re not just preparing great tasting hot food items – you’re spreading the light and warmth of hospitality by delivering memorable experiences that make the stay for every guest.

If you take pride in cooking great food and enjoy following tried-and-true recipes, we’d love to meet you. This role is for morning and evening shifts, with weekends and holiday availability required based on business needs, and it’s a great chance to build your skills and grow your culinary career.

What You’ll Do

During a typical shift, you will:

  • Prepare high-quality dishes: Prepare menu items according to designated recipes and quality standards
  • Delight our guests: Prepare guest orders efficiently while ensuring a positive dining experience
  • Execute basic food prep: Maintain a strong knowledge of basic prep work and simple cooking tasks (e.g., salads, sides, basic breakfast) to assist higher-ranked cooks
  • Inspect and finalize plates: Inspect all preparations and dishes ahead of serving to ensure they meet quality and presentation standards
  • Maintain a clean and organized workspace: Keep food service stations stocked and sanitary while following proper food handling, storage, and safety protocols
  • Manage product and operational needs: Master kitchen equipment and recipes
  • Comply with regulatory standards: Maintain compliance with health, safety, sanitation, and alcohol awareness regulations, ensuring the highest standards of guest and team member well-being

What It Takes to Make the Stay

At the DoubleTree, our values define how we care for our guests, our communities, and one another.

We are looking for someone who brings:

  • A genuine passion for hospitality and helping others
  • Integrity, sound judgment, and discretion
  • Confidence working independently as well as with front-of-house staff
  • A sense of ownership and personal accountability
  • Previous restaurant and cooking experience preferred.

Schedule Requirements

This position may include both morning and evening shifts to support restaurant and banquet operations. Open availability is strongly preferred, and weekend and holiday availability may be required based on business needs.
