Full Job Description

Lone Pine Brewing Company is a Maine-based brewery with a strong focus on great

beer, great food, and creating a welcoming experience for our guests. Our Old Orchard

Beach location is a fast-paced, high-volume environment that comes alive during the

summer season.

We are looking for an experienced and motivated Kitchen Manager to lead our kitchen

team, oversee day-to-day kitchen operations, and maintain high standards for food

quality, cleanliness, safety, and hospitality. This is a hands-on leadership position for

someone who enjoys working alongside their team and takes pride in creating an

organized, efficient, and positive kitchen environment.

Job Overview

team leadership, food preparation, inventory management, ordering, food safety,

consistency.

leadership to ensure smooth communication and a consistent guest experience.

Maintain an organized, clean, and efficient kitchen.
Monitor prep levels and ensure the kitchen is properly stocked for each shift.
Identify operational issues and work with the General Manager to develop solutions.
Help establish and maintain efficient kitchen systems and procedures. Food Safety & Sanitation
Always maintain strict food safety and sanitation standards.
Ensure proper food handling, storage, labeling, temperature control, and cleaning procedures.
Maintain compliance with all local and state health department requirements.
Conduct regular inspections of the kitchen, coolers, storage areas, and equipment.
Ensure all kitchen employees follow required food safety and sanitation procedures.
Must be ServSafe Certified or willing to obtain certification upon hire.

Inventory & Cost Control

Work closely with the General Manager and Front of House leadership to coordinate daily operations.
Communicate staffing, inventory, maintenance, and operational concerns promptly.
Participate in menu development, recipe updates, specials, and seasonal changes as needed.
Support the overall goals and culture of Lone Pine Brewing Company.

Qualifications

Proven experience as a Kitchen Manager, Sous Chef, Chef, or similar kitchen leadership role, preferably in a high-volume restaurant, brewery, or hospitality environment.
Strong knowledge of kitchen operations, food safety, sanitation, and proper food handling.

What We're Looking For

The ideal candidate is a hands-on leader who understands that a successful kitchen is

built on consistency, communication, accountability, and teamwork. You should be

comfortable jumping in wherever needed, from prep and service to cleaning and

training, while also keeping an eye on the bigger picture.

We're looking for someone who wants to help build a strong kitchen team and take

ownership of the operation-not someone who simply manages from the sidelines.

Opportunities for professional growth and development
Employee benefits available from day one
Opportunity to be part of a growing Maine brewery and hospitality team
