Full Job Description

The Junto is a modern-day embodiment of Ben Franklin and his club of the same name. His “club for mutual improvement” brought together people from all backgrounds to discuss issues and ideas of the time while enjoying life. With an emphasis on public gathering spaces, our hotel gives visitors, locals, entrepreneurs, and artists alike a place to come together, exchange ideas, and inspire one another. The Junto will be both a destination and a landmark of the area, helping to define and add value to the future of Columbus.

The Lead Banquet Cook works closely with front-of-house staff to ensure food is prepared efficiently, consistently, and according to established recipes and presentation standards.

Monitor food quality, temperatures, portion sizes, presentation, and consistency throughout service.
Assist with receiving, storing, labeling, rotating, and properly handling food products.
Maintain a clean, organized, and safe work environment throughout the shift.
Follow all food safety, sanitation, and kitchen safety procedures and ensure proper standards are maintained.
Properly clean and maintain commercial kitchen equipment and work areas.
Work efficiently and calmly in a fast-paced, high-volume environment, particularly during peak banquet and event service.
