🍳 Prep + Line Cook (Back-of-House) — Part-Time or Full-Time
📍 Rittenhouse Reports to: Kitchen Manager / Manager on Duty
At The Ground , our cozy plant-filled cafés stay buzzing from open to close and none of it would be possible without our kitchen team. We're hiring a hybrid Prep + Line Cook to join our back-of-house operations, helping us serve a tight, crave-worthy menu of wraps, baked goods, and grab-and-go favorites that fuel our drink-loving, pastry-snacking crowd.
This role is ideal for someone who thrives in a fast-moving kitchen, isn’t afraid of a prep list, and enjoys collaborating with baristas and fellow cooks to keep things flowing smoothly. You'll work both on the line during service and in prep before or after rushes so multitasking, communication, and cleanliness are key.
