Job Description

Culinary Operations Manager

Third Place by Half Full Brewery | Stamford, CT

Build something from the ground up—together.

We’re looking for a hands-on, food-obsessed Culinary Operations Manager to lead a brand-new, custom-built food trailer located onsite at Third Place Brewery. This is a rare opportunity to launch and run a culinary concept designed around great food, great beer, and real community.

You’ll work closely with our Founder and General Manager of Retail Operations to shape the menu, build the team, and create a welcoming food experience that brings people together. This role is ideal for a leader who thrives in fast-paced environments, takes ownership, and wants room to grow as the concept expands.

What You’ll Do
  • Lead daily kitchen operations with a focus on quality, speed, and consistency

  • Create and edit menus, specials, and catering offerings

  • Manage inventory, ordering, food costs, and scheduling

  • Oversee food safety, sanitation, and health department compliance

  • Maintain and operate a custom-built food trailer efficiently

  • Hire, train, and lead a small, high-performing kitchen team

  • Work the line during peak hours and lead by example

What We’re Looking For
  • 3+ years of restaurant or kitchen leadership experience

  • Strong culinary fundamentals and operational know-how

  • Comfort working in compact, high-energy spaces

  • ServSafe Food Handler certification (required)

  • Entrepreneurial mindset and passion for hospitality

  • English proficiency required; Spanish a plus

Why This Role

This is more than a kitchen job—it’s a chance to grow with a community-first concept. As the program expands, so do the opportunities for leadership development, increased responsibility, and long-term career growth.

If you’re excited to build something meaningful, lead a team, and grow alongside the business—we’d love to meet you.
