Full Job Description

Line Cook — The Surfrider Hotel Malibu

**Malibu, CA | Day & Evening Shifts Available**

Steps from Surfrider Beach, our 20-room boutique hotel is looking for a Line Cook who wants to grow their craft in a kitchen built on respect — for the food, for the ocean it comes from, the land it grows on, and for the team that turns it into something worth serving.

This is a hands-on role for someone who wants to sharpen their fundamentals, work close to zero-waste cooking, and be part of a small, tight-knit kitchen where every station matters. Whether you're an aspiring chef building your foundation, or an experienced cook looking to slow down, reconnect with the craft, and work somewhere the ocean is right outside the door — this role is for you.

Our Philosophy

We believe in using every part of the ingredient and wasting as little as possible. Every piece of food that comes through our kitchen is treated with intention — properly stored, properly rotated, and used to its fullest. That same respect extends to the kitchen itself: to the equipment, the prep, and the people you work beside.

A real chef owns the whole kitchen, not just the station they're best at. In our kitchen, you are the start and the finish of every operation — from the first wash to the final plate — and that full-circle ownership is what separates a line cook from a true chef in the making.

What You'll Do

- Own your station: prep, cook, and plate with the same care whether it's a quiet Tuesday or a full house
- Practice first-in, first-out food rotation and help minimize waste through thoughtful prep and storage
- Keep cooking stations fully stocked and ready, especially heading into prime service hours
- Maintain food storage units to standard, and keep kitchen equipment clean, functional, and well cared for
- Take pride in the whole kitchen, including keeping dishes, glassware, and cookware washed and sanitized — no task is beneath a chef who respects the craft
- Collaborate with the Food & Beverage team on menu ideas, technique, and plating — this is a kitchen where your input on the craft is welcome
- Uphold all health code protocols and manage kitchen waste and trash responsibly

What We're Looking For

- A genuine respect for food, craft, and the people you work with
- Prior kitchen experience
- A valid food handler certificate
- A willingness to do the full range of kitchen work — dish pit to line — with care and pride in the details

Why Surfrider Malibu

You'll work in one of the most beautiful settings in Malibu, with the beach across the street and the ocean setting the pace of the day. It's an intimate kitchen with room to actually learn, refine your skills, and be part of every part of the process — not just one station. If you're looking to grow as a cook, or simply reconnect with why you fell in love with the kitchen in the first place, we'd love to meet you.
