Kitchen Supervisor - Lake View

Call Your Mother Deli•Chicago, IL

8d•$23 - $25•Onsite

About The Position

Call Your Mother is the Jew-ish deli where Boca meets Brooklyn, grandma-level hospitality meets seriously good bagel sandwiches, and hard work meets face-melting vibes. Husband-and-wife team Andrew and Chef Dani built Call Your Mother around one simple idea: people deserve incredible food made by people who give an F. From our first farmers market stand in 2018, to shops across the DMV, Colorado, Chicago, and Philadelphia, we've grown by obsessing over the details and blasting the music and laughing along the way. Behind every great guest experience is an even greater kitchen team. We're building a place where people grind hard, share lots of good (and bad) jokes, and have the chance to make a guest's day through food made with love and genuine hospitality. Most importantly, we're creating a culture where members of the squad can shape their futures and grow into their dream careers.
