    • Maintain exceptional standards of cleanliness, organization, and food safety across your station, pantry, and active kitchen prep areas. 
    • Ensure proper sanitation of equipment, utensils, and workstations before, during, and after service to maintain a seamless operation. 
    • Conduct and document mandatory HACCP checks, promptly reporting any equipment issues, food safety concerns, or workflow optimizations. 
    • Foster teamwork across the kitchen brigade to ensure an efficient, high-performing service and exceptional guest experience.
