Job Description

Line Cook (Opening Team)

Location : St. Petersburg, FL

Type : Full Time / Part Time

Compensation : $18–$21 / hour (based on experience and station proficiency)

Welcome to St. Pete Athletic.

We’re not just launching a club—we’re building a community, a standard, and a vibe. Think urban country club. St. Pete Athletic is where sport, hospitality, and social energy collide. With 14 pickleball courts, 2 padel courts, dedicated table tennis spaces, a full-service restaurant and bar, and amenities ranging from coworking to wellness to a garden oasis—it’s a place to play, connect, and belong.

But our real secret? Hospitality. The kind you feel, not just see. We believe in creating moments that surprise and delight. And we’re looking for Line Cooks who live and breathe that philosophy.

The Opportunity

As a Line Cook at St. Pete Athletic, you are the backbone of the culinary program—executing chef-driven dishes that range from quick courtside bites to fine-dining plates and private event menus. With precision, speed, and an uncompromising commitment to quality, you’ll ensure every guest enjoys an elevated dining experience that reflects the club’s luxury hospitality standards and performance-driven philosophy.

This role is perfect for a detail-oriented cook who thrives under pressure, embraces collaboration, and takes pride in consistency and craft.

Key Responsibilities

Culinary Preparation & Execution

  • Prep proteins, produce, sauces, and garnishes daily, labeling and rotating using FIFO standards.
  • Follow recipes, plating guides, and portioning specifications; provide feedback to chefs on efficiency and guest response.
  • Execute plates to luxury service standards—temperature, flavor balance, portion accuracy, and garnish consistency.
  • Respond to expo and call orders across courtside, café, dining, and event service with speed and accuracy.
  • Maintain ticket times in accordance with SOPs, adjusting pace collaboratively during peak volume.
  • Prepare gluten-free, vegan, and allergy-sensitive items carefully, following cross-contamination protocols.

Food Safety & Quality Standards

  • Verify cooking, holding, and storage temperatures; log cooler / freezer checks during shifts.
  • Adhere to HACCP guidelines, sanitation checklists, and allergy protocols.
  • Sanitize work surfaces, tools, and equipment continuously throughout service.
  • Sample daily taste plates to confirm flavor profiles meet chef and brand standards.
  • Minimize food waste through mindful prep, proper storage, and portion control.

    • Station Management & Operations

  • Complete opening and closing procedures for assigned stations (mise en place, restocking, logs, deep cleaning, breakdown).
  • Restock supplies proactively (oils, seasonings, garnishes) before service.
  • Rotate across stations—grill, sauté, pantry, prep—based on daily needs and events.
  • Support banquet, buffet, and plated service execution for VIP events, tournaments, and wellness programming.

    • Inventory & Reporting

  • Assist with weekly inventory counts and report low stock or quality concerns to sous chef.
  • Receive and store deliveries, inspecting for quality, expiration, and proper handling.

    • Team Collaboration

  • Communicate clearly with expo, service, and culinary teammates on timing, delays, and handoffs.
  • Confirm handoffs verbally to ensure accountability.
  • Support teammates during peak periods to maintain flow and quality.
  • Flexibly accommodate early mornings, late evenings, weekends, and private events.

    • Professional Standards

  • Arrive in a clean, pressed uniform with polished non-slip shoes.
  • Exhibit a positive, solution-oriented attitude under pressure.
  • Report equipment malfunctions or safety hazards immediately.
  • Uphold the club’s culinary philosophy of wellness, lifestyle, and performance-focused dining.
  • Ability to stand for extended periods, lift at least 30 lbs, and work in hot, fast-paced environments.

    • Who You Are

  • You’re an experienced line cook who thrives in high-volume, quality-driven environments.
  • You’re precise, fast, and reliable—with a strong commitment to consistency.
  • You take pride in presentation and detail, even during peak volume.
  • You’re collaborative and thrive as part of a professional culinary team.
  • You’re passionate about hospitality-driven dining and wellness-focused cuisine.

    • Our Promise to You

    At St. Pete Athletic, we want this to be one of the best jobs you’ve ever had. That means :

  • A supportive team culture built on kindness, excellence, and joy.
  • Opportunities to learn under experienced culinary leadership.
  • The chance to be part of a club that values creativity, performance, and connection.
  • Employee discount for club membership (includes F&B and retail preferred pricing).

    • Compensation & Benefits

  • $18–$21 / hour (based on experience and station proficiency).
  • Opportunity to enroll in company health insurance plans.
  • Flexible scheduling (part-time or full-time).
  • Opportunities for advancement in an opening club.

    • Sound Like You? Let’s Talk.
