El Corral Job Opportunity

Great position for a career in hospitality. Come on in because El Corral has the job for you! We are currently looking to fill dinner shift kitchen positions. If you have been in kitchens for a while and can run a few stations, great! If not, we will teach you everything you need to know to be successful with us. The kitchen is the heart of a restaurant and a solid team keeps the beat strong and consistent. It takes the whole kitchen working together to put out memorable dinners, so if you enjoy working in a team, you will thrive here. Most team members cross-train, so there is also an opportunity to learn and grow.

El Corral is only open for dinner service, and our prep team has the bulk of the day's prep list complete before the evening kitchen team arrives. This means that you can come into a clean, stocked, and ready kitchen, with only minimal prep for your station. This also means that your shift starts a bit later in the day, giving you more time before work to live life. The menu is straightforward and the restaurant is grateful to have a lot of volume. The pace can be quick so previous history as a short order cook or in high volume operations is a big plus, but not necessary. Compensation starts at $15.5/hr and some kitchen positions are tipped out as well.

El Corral has been open since 1939; we are locally owned and operated. We are a busy and thriving restaurant with staying power. If you want to begin or advance your career in the restaurant industry, there is no better place to start than Tucson. Come see why we have employees who have been here for over 30 years and have an average tenure of more than 7 years!

Responsibilities:

• Actively participate in the preparation of high-quality food items to satisfy incoming orders and as needed.
• Follow proper hygiene requirements by the Pima County Health Department.
• Actively participate in general kitchen prep and set-up when needed.
• Maintain composure while working in sometimes adverse conditions including high and low temperatures and varying amounts of noise.
• Assist in maintaining cleanliness and organization in kitchen and storage areas at all times.

Requirements:

• High school diploma or equivalent.
• Minimal work experience.
• Strong problem-solving and communication skills.
• Exceptional time management skills.
• Ability to stand or walk for 8-hour shifts and lift at least 20 pounds.
