- Troubleshoot and manage restaurant ordering systems and kitchen technology to ensure smooth day-to-day operations.
- Assist with catering events and mobile pizza service as needed.
- Help improve kitchen workflows, systems, and operational efficiency.
- Interact with customers professionally and confidently, delivering exceptional customer service and representing the Local Stone brand in every interaction.
- Pitch in wherever needed—at Local Stone, no task is beneath anyone. From mixing dough and firing pizzas to cleaning equipment and washing dishes, every team member contributes to our success.
What We’re Looking For:
- 3–5 years of professional food service experience (artisan pizza experience strongly preferred).
- Experience making dough from scratch with a solid understanding of fermentation and consistency.
- Comfortable using and troubleshooting POS, online ordering, and kitchen management software.
- Business-minded with strong organizational and problem-solving skills.
- Self-motivated, dependable, and able to work independently.
- A positive attitude, strong work ethic, and pride in producing exceptional food.
- Ambition to grow with the company and take on increasing leadership responsibilities as Local Stone expands.
