At Urban Hill, we believe the last bite of the night matters just as much as the first. We're a from-scratch, wood-fired kitchen in Salt Lake City's Post District, part of the Hill Top Hospitality family.

- Decorate and finish with care and precision, presentation matters here
- Collaborate on recipe development while maintaining consistency with established standards
- Write daily prep lists and communicate clearly with the team
- Keep your station clean, organized, and stocked
- Assist with closing procedures and set the next shift up for success
WHAT YOU BRING
- Experience: Background as a pastry cook or chef in an upscale or professional kitchen
- Education: Formal pastry or culinary training preferred, though strong experience counts just as much
- Precision: Detail-oriented in measuring, timing, and finishing
- Creativity: You have an eye for beautiful work and ideas to match
- Stamina: Comfortable on your feet for a full shift, able to lift up to 50 lbs
- Availability: Five evenings per week, including weekends and holidays
