Bring Your Care and Energy to a Community That Matters

Looking for part-time work where you can make a difference in someone's day?

At Walnut Hills, a part of Greencroft Communities, our culinary team plays an important role in creating comfortable, enjoyable dining experiences for older adults. We're a nonprofit organization with a people-first mission, and we value team members who take pride in their work and care about the people they serve.

This position is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys staying active, working with others, and keeping things running smoothly behind the scenes.

A Typical Day

As a Culinary Services Aide, you'll support both the kitchen and dining areas throughout your shift. Your work may include:

  • Cleaning and sanitizing dishes, silverware, glasses, cookware, and kitchen tools
  • Keeping dishwashing stations and surrounding kitchen areas neat and ready for use
  • Helping culinary staff with basic food preparation, such as washing and cutting produce, preparing salads, or assembling desserts
  • Getting dining spaces ready before meals and helping keep them organized afterward
  • Moving food carts, dishes, and other supplies throughout the community
  • Taking out waste and maintaining clean, sanitary work areas
  • Following established food-safety, sanitation, and infection-prevention practices
  • Pitching in with coworkers to help meals and service run efficiently

You'll be an important part of the team that helps residents enjoy a pleasant and well-organized dining experience.

  • Notices when something needs to be cleaned, organized, or restocked
  • Can follow instructions and established safety procedures
  • Maintains a positive, helpful attitude during busy periods
  • Is comfortable performing routine and repetitive tasks while paying attention to details

Previous restaurant, kitchen, housekeeping, healthcare, or senior-living experience is welcome but not required.

  • Occasionally lift up to 40 pounds
  • Frequently lift or handle items weighing up to 10 pounds
  • Stand and walk for extended periods
  • Bend, reach, and perform repetitive movements
  • Safely complete assigned duties while following sanitation and infection-prevention requirements
