Description
The position involves actively participating in the daily operations of a high-volume kitchen. Key responsibilities include preparing a variety of dishes—such as pasta, pizzas, salads, and desserts—following technical specifications to ensure consistent quality and standards. You will also continuously replenish the buffet, monitoring dish timing to guarantee smooth customer service in Mataró. Organization and efficiency are essential in this dynamic environment.
In addition to food production, a strong commitment to cleanliness and maintenance is required. This includes keeping the workstation and equipment—such as ovens and cookers—in impeccable hygienic and safe condition. You will also assist with stock management, including receiving goods and monitoring expiry dates using the FIFO system to minimize waste and improve operational efficiency. The contract is temporary and part-time, with 20 working hours per week.
The work environment is fast-paced and demands both mental and physical agility—especially during peak hours, where speed and precision are critical. We seek someone passionate about cooking who can adapt to an intense rhythm and collaborate effectively within a team to meet service objectives. This role combines hands-on skills with a proactive attitude toward hygiene and organization.
Mental and physical agility is required to work quickly and accurately in a high-demand environment, along with demonstrable passion for kitchen work. Solid knowledge of food safety—including HACCP—and food handling is mandatory, as is availability for rotating shifts, including weekends and public holidays. Prior experience of at least one year in high-volume kitchens or quick-service establishments will be considered a strong advantage.
