Job Description

Matchaful Culinary Lab, Clinton Hill, Brooklyn NYC

Matchaful offers sustainable Japanese matcha and active botanical nutrition. We currently have (6) cafe locations in NYC, and we’re expanding this summer into Brooklyn! Our small team is passionate about leading the plant-based matcha + food movement in a sustainable, elevated and respectable way.

The Matchaful Culinary Lab in Clinton Hill will be the largest space we've been in yet, and it will feature our first dedicated culinary production facility as well as our signature Matchaful Café. At Matchaful, we make all of our concentrates for our creative lattes- such as the beloved ginger zing, secret garden, and cacao dream - in our very own kitchen. Over the past few years, we’ve also expanded our plant-based & gluten-free offerings to include a yuzu donut, vegan soft serve, matcha sunflower butter oats, and matcha sesame noodles…to name a few. Matchaful’s Grain-Free Granola that is now sold in grocery stores was actually developed in our café kitchen. The Matchaful Culinary Lab will be a space for innovation, experimentation, and nourishment! We can’t wait to give our loyal community a window into what we’re doing behind the scenes. 

As Matchaful’s Prep Chef, you will be responsible for the preparation of our in-house food offerings, cleaning and organizing the space, and working directly under our Head Chef and Culinary Manager.

Lots of growth opportunities exist as Matchaful as we expand our culinary offerings and cafe footprint this year! We are open to interviewing all levels of experience to find the right fit if it exists within our team - we are always changing and growing! Please email your resume and a brief cover letter about why you’d be a great fit for our team to [email protected]
