Start date: Campus opens August 24th but need to be on site and ready by 20th
Company
Graduated Meals is built on a simple belief: great food and great service go hand in hand. What started in Atlanta as a vision to bring elevated, homemade meals to Greek Life has grown into a trusted national partner serving fraternities and sororities across the country. Since 2008, we’ve earned our reputation through quality, consistency, and real relationships with our houses.
If you’re passionate about food, people, and purpose, we’d love to have you! Join the Graduated Meals team and bring your talent to a company that cares.
Your Role
We’re looking for a talented, driven, and highly organized Chef to take the lead in a vibrant fraternity/sorority house kitchen serving live-in student residents. In this full-time role, you’ll own the daily rhythm of the kitchen: crafting great food, managing inventory and budgets, ordering supplies, and leading a small kitchen team.
This role goes beyond cooking. You’ll shape the dining experience, build strong relationships within the house, and create a kitchen culture that’s welcoming, efficient, and consistent. If you thrive with autonomy and want to make a real impact through food, this is a rare opportunity to run your own kitchen in a dynamic collegiate setting.
