Essential Duties & Responsibilities

As a lead pizza maker, you are responsible for high quality execution. In addition to making pizzas to order, you are responsible for ensuring all ingredients are appropriately prepped, assembled and cooked according to restaurant recipes and specifications. Pizza makers are responsible for making, fermenting, and portioning all the varieties of dough. In addition, the pizza team produces all their own sauces: tomato, pesto, garlic cream, etc and core ingredients like roasted mushrooms. Orders are for in-house and to go and must be produced in a timely manner. There are core items like garlic knots, tomato pies, pretzels, and other dough-based items that must be produced for a la carte purchase in the market. There is a weekly special for which pizza makers participate in the menu development. You must comply with nutrition/sanitation regulations and safety standards. You also are required to maintain a positive and professional approach with coworkers and customers. The pizza kitchen is a shared space with our production baker and our deli team, and as such requires flexibility in sharing space and strong communication. There is some guest interaction when pizzas are delivered to tables but this is largely a BOH position.

As the lead pizza maker, you will work hand in hand with business management on ingredient procurement, inventory levels, and the creative process.
