About You & The Role

This role is for a Pizzaiolo who takes pride in doing things properly and delivering consistent results, service after service.

You will work in a structured, high-volume pizza section with clear standards for dough handling, topping, baking, and presentation. The pace is fast and the work is repetitive at times, but the satisfaction comes from precision, rhythm, and maintaining quality under pressure. Great pizza here is the result of focus, timing, and respect for the process.

Progress in this role doesn’t come from fast titles or constant change. It comes from consistency, feedback, and taking responsibility for your station every day. Pizzaiolos who do well enjoy mastering the craft through repetition, working clean and organized, and being part of a team where standards are non-negotiable.

If you value clear expectations, responsibility in your section, and the feeling of finishing a service knowing every pizza left the oven exactly as it should, this environment will suit you.
