Work here is Work with Purpose
Lead the Kitchen That Feeds Our Community!
Every week, hundreds of our neighbors rely on Sweet Beet Cafe for fresh, nutritious meals. From cafe customers to FREEdge clients to partners like Dartmouth Health’s Food is Medicine program, our kitchen directly drives the Kearsarge Food Hub’s mission to strengthen local food and nutrition security.
Right now, we are looking for a Kitchen Manager to step into a vital leadership role.
If you are a culinary pro who thrives on organization, efficiency, and making a tangible local impact, we need your expertise to keep our engine running.
As the Kitchen Manager at Sweet Beet Cafe, you will:
Lead daily kitchen operations and support an amazing team
Transform seasonal ingredients from our local farmers into creative, nourishing meals
Oversee scheduling, ordering, inventory and production systems
Ensure a high standard of food safety for our community
Help create an efficient, collaborative, mission-driven kitchen culture
What makes this job stand out:
Work with Purpose: Rather than earning profits for corporate stakeholders, your hard work directly strengthens your community.
Stability & Growth: Be part of a well-supported, respected nonprofit with a reliable funding base and a collaborative culture—with room to grow!
Work-Life Balance: Unlike traditional restaurant roles, we offer predictable, daytime schedules with no late nights.
In addition to a competitive nonprofit salary, you’ll receive paid time off, bonus compensation and employee discounts including 25% off in the market and a $10 meal credit with every shift.
We are looking to fill this role quickly to ensure our services don't miss a beat. If you’re a culinary leader ready for a meaningful change, let’s talk!
