Dishwasher / Prep Cook
Critics Choice Catering & Event Production | Gardena, CA
Part-Time | 25-35 Hours Per Week | $20-$23/hr DOE

About Us

Critics Choice Catering & Event Production is a second-generation, family-owned catering and event production company serving the Greater Los Angeles area since 1984. We produce scratch-made food for corporate clients, social events, and private venues. We take pride in our kitchen standards, our team culture, and the quality of everything that comes out of our facility. If you care about food, work hard, and want to be part of a team that takes hospitality seriously, we want to meet you.

The Role

We're looking for a reliable, hard-working Dishwasher/Prep Cook to support our kitchen operations out of our Gardena facility. This is a dual-role position — you'll keep the kitchen clean, organized, and running smoothly while also supporting our prep team with basic food preparation tasks. The right person takes pride in their station, moves with a sense of urgency, and understands that clean kitchens and solid prep work are the foundation of great events.

What You'll Do

Wash, sanitize, and properly store all dishes, pots, pans, sheet trays, and kitchen equipment
Maintain cleanliness of dish stations, prep areas, floors, and trash throughout your shift
Assist kitchen team with food prep tasks including washing, peeling, cutting, portioning, and packaging
Follow all recipes, portion guides, and prep lists as directed by the Head Chef or Sous Chef
Receive and properly store deliveries as needed
Label and date all prepped items per food safety standards
Support catering production for events of all sizes
Communicate proactively with kitchen leadership when supplies run low or issues arise
Maintain compliance with all food safety and sanitation standards (California Health Code)

What We're Looking For

Prior kitchen, dishwashing, or food prep experience preferred
Ability to work efficiently in a fast-paced, production-focused kitchen environment
Strong attention to cleanliness and detail
Dependable — you show up on time, ready to work
Positive attitude and team-first mentality
Ability to stand for extended periods and lift up to 50 lbs
Food Handler's Card required (or willingness to obtain upon hire)
Basic English communication skills required; bilingual is a plus

Schedule & Compensation

Part-time, 25-35 hours per week
Shifts may include weekdays and weekends depending on schedule
Pay: $20-$23/hr based on experience

Why Join CCC

Family-owned company with over 40 years in the business
Consistent, year-round work with a growing event calendar
Supportive team culture focused on growth and accountability
Opportunity to grow into prep cook, line cook, or event kitchen roles

Critics Choice Catering & Event Production is an equal opportunity employer.

Pay: $20.00 - $23.00 per hour

Work Location: In person
