- Lead BOH operations across both concepts
- Enforce systems, structure, and accountability
- Balance volume (Fire Wings) with precision & creativity (Merritt House)
- Manage labor, food costs, and training
- Foster a team-oriented, respectful kitchen culture
- $25–$28/hr DOE + additional benefits
- Growth opportunity as Merritt House menu launches and GM role develops
- Fire Wings (majority of production): We average 15–20 tickets per hour, with peak rushes around 30. While not the extreme counts of a corporate QSR, Fire Wings orders are multi-component (different wing counts, sauces, and sides), which adds complexity and requires tight pacing and strong leadership. The menu is set by corporate, but you'll have room for tweaks and improvements. Our goal is to stand out as the most community-connected Fire Wings location.
- Merritt House (smaller but equally important): The upcoming 10-item menu emphasizes precision and presentation. The Kitchen Manager will take the lead in executing and refining this menu, ensuring food meets high standards and enhances the identity of Merritt House as a true neighborhood bar and community living room.
- Consistently delivers food guests love at both Fire Wings and Merritt House.
- Uses systems to keep the kitchen organized, efficient, and on track.
- Stays motivated, trained, and accountable under your leadership.
- Runs lean with smart scheduling and disciplined food costs.
- Maintains a safe, clean, and positive workplace.
- Helps build our reputation as a kitchen staff are proud to be part of and guests are proud to support.
- Lead and manage all kitchen operations for both concepts.
- Oversee pacing, ticket flow, and service times during peak hours.
- Manage labor: scheduling, punctuality, shift coverage, and efficiency.
- Control food costs through portioning, waste reduction, and accurate ordering.
- Maintain a safe, clean, and compliant kitchen environment.
- Enforce food safety, sanitation, and workplace safety standards.
- Train, coach, and hold team members accountable.
- Collaborate with ownership on systems, menu execution, and Merritt House development.
- Attend weekly check-ins with ownership to review labor, costs, staffing, and performance.
- Step in with FOH competence when needed — interacting with guests and supporting the front-of-house team.
- Foster a positive, respectful, and team-oriented kitchen culture.
- Prior management experience in a QSR or fast-casual kitchen.
- Strong leadership skills with the ability to motivate and hold staff accountable.
- Competent in POS, scheduling, and ordering systems.
- Solid interpersonal and communication skills with both staff and guests.
- Calm under pressure and able to solve problems quickly.
- Systems-focused mindset — thrives in structure and process.
- $25–$28 per hour, depending on experience.
- Full-time management role with consistent support from ownership.
- Additional benefits available, including support for health coverage and retirement savings.
- Opportunity for creative input and growth, particularly with the rollout of Merritt House's food program.
- Disciplinary oversight is expected, with shared ownership support during the interim.
- Hiring/firing authority is negotiable and may expand depending on experience.
- Growth path is clear: over time, a General Manager will assume higher-level operations oversight, while you continue leading the kitchen.
- 401(k) matching
- Employee discount
- Flexible schedule
- Health insurance
- Paid training

Description
Kitchen Manager – Fire Wings Oakland & Merritt House
We're seeking a hands-on, systems-focused Kitchen Manager to lead our shared kitchen, overseeing food operations for both Fire Wings (QSR, high-volume wings) and Merritt House Cocktail Bar (10-item menu in development).
Quick Highlights
Full Job DescriptionAbout Us
Fire Wings Oakland is a quick-service restaurant (QSR) specializing in bold, craveable chicken wings and sides. While part of a larger brand, our Oakland location is focused on building a strong, localized identity — not just another chain, but a community-focused business.
Alongside Fire Wings, we operate Merritt House Cocktail Bar, a neighborhood gathering place overlooking Lake Merritt. Merritt House is a cozy, stylish cocktail bar with a food program designed to complement the bar experience. A new 10-item menu is being developed, and this role will lead in executing and refining it.
Together, the two concepts share one large kitchen — and we're looking for a Kitchen Manager to lead the team, enforce systems, and oversee all food operations across both.
The Role
The Kitchen Manager is the operational backbone of our kitchen, responsible for leading staff, enforcing systems, and ensuring food quality and consistency across both concepts.
Success in This Role
Success means leading a team that:
