The Seasoned Spoon offers employment opportunities to students and we are proud of our strong ties to the local community, including with producers, businesses and community organizations. We seek to provide a collegial space where we build community through food.

Job Description

The Head Cook is responsible for running all aspects of the Spoon kitchen, including financial over-sight, inventory, staff support and menu creation. This is one of four management positions at the Seasoned Spoon. You will be working alongside an Executive Director, Kitchen Manager, Program Director, as well as a large student staff. In particular, the Head Cook works closely with the Kitchen Manager, who oversees staff scheduling, food orders and the operation of the kitchen in the afternoon.

An awareness of the challenges and opportunities that are inherent with local food sourcing and food sourcing outside mainstream channels of commercial food production will be an important part of this position. Understanding the Spoon’s role as a cooperative, social enterprise and keeping a commitment to the Spoon’s mandate is necessary.

The Head Cook is responsible for:

Overseeing the day-to-day operations & maintenance of the café
Devising weekly menus in compliance with the Cooperative’s mandate, while minimizing food waste
Coordinating catering activities
Ensuring compliance with relevant health and safety requirements
Oversee and ensure café opening and morning schedule
Maintaining regular communications with the other managers to ensure the efficiency and solvency of café operations
Coordinating food purchases and orders, including bi-weekly farmers’ market shops
Supervising, training and directing kitchen staff and volunteers
Participating in staff hiring, feedback, evaluation and discipline
Providing feedback to the Executive Director in the area of food pricing, menu options, and catering rates
Advising the Executive Director of any issues related to the purchase, repair, or replacement of café equipment

Required Skills and Qualifications:

Kitchen management experience and a thorough understanding of kitchen operations
Fostering an inclusive environment
Knowledge of how to preserve, store, and prepare seasonal food
Knowledge and interest in the politics of equitable food and regenerative agriculture
Experience costing food when preparing a menu
Strong communication and interpersonal skills
Good organizational skills, punctuality, and attention to detail
Ability to manage multiple projects in a dynamic environment
Food Handlers Certificate or willingness / ability to renew
Access to a vehicle

Additional Considerations:

This position is physically demanding and can involve many hours spent standing. The ability to lift up to 50lbs is required.
While the shifts are typically early morning to early afternoon, Monday to Friday, plus a bi-weekly Saturday market shop, the Head Cook may be required to work outside of normal work hours such as evenings and/or weekends.

The Seasoned Spoon is committed to employment equity and diversity in the workplace. We encourage applications from persons with disabilities, women, LGBTQIA2S+ individuals, and BIPOC community members.

For more information, or to submit your Resume and Cover Letter, write to [email protected].

*While we appreciate your interest in the position, only applicants selected for an interview will be contacted directly.

Application Deadline: Monday, July 20, 2026

Start Date: Late August 2026.

The Seasoned Spoon is located in Nogojiwanong (Peterborough ON). We recognize that this is the traditional territory and ongoing treaty lands of the Michi Saagiig Nishnaabeg including the First Nations of Alderville, Hiawatha, Scugog Island, and Curve Lake, the Métis of Burleigh Falls, as well as the Chippewas of Beausoleil, Georgina Island, and Rama, all of whom are collectively known as the Williams Treaties First Nations.
