What are the responsibilities and job description for the Kitchen Manager / Chef position at Private Email?
A beloved Denver diner is on the hunt for a Kitchen Manager / Chef who knows their way around a flat-top, doesn't crack under a weekend rush, and still cares — deeply — about whether the soup is perfect. We're a busy, unapologetically classic joint. The kind of place where regulars order by name and the coffee is brewed, not steamed and foamed. We take our food seriously without taking ourselves too seriously, and we need a kitchen leader who's wired the same way.
What You'll Bring:
3 years running a kitchen (diner, short-order, or scratch-cooking background a plus)
A genuine love of comfort food, consistently done right
Cool head, loud voice, and zero drama
Ability to train, mentor, and lead a small crew with firmness and heart
Experience ordering and sourcing provisions — you know good ingredients and how to get them at the best price
A spotless kitchen isn't an inspection-pending thing for you — it's every day
Confident scheduling staff to match the ebb and flow of a busy diner
ServSafe certified or similar credentials
What You'll Get
Competitive salary
Real creative input on specials
A team that shows up and has your back
Reasonable hours — no late-night chaos, and two days off in a row. Every. Single. Week.
Paid time off and holidays
A chance to put your stamp on a Denver neighborhood institution
