FIFO Shift Schedule: Rotation-based (fly-in / fly-out; 10–12 hour shifts)

Job Description:
First Cooks with OFA3 certification play a dual-accountability role in remote camp environments—delivering consistent, high-quality food service while acting as the primary on-site first aid lead.

• Preparing and serving three daily meals (buffet breakfast, lunch, and dinner)
• Producing baked goods and desserts from scratch
• Developing menus aligned to site preferences and dietary restrictions
• Managing food inventory, ordering, receiving, and proper storage
• Implementing and executing a Food Safety Plan using advanced HACCP methods
• Enforcing FIFO inventory rotation and allergen controls
• Maintaining clean, organized kitchen and food storage areas
• Leading daily toolbox meetings and orienting incoming kitchen staff
• Conducting monthly kitchen and facility health & safety inspections
• Coaching, training, and supervising kitchen staff to safe work standards
• Reporting incidents, accidents, unsafe conditions, and equipment issues immediately
• Providing OFA3 / emergency medical response as required
• Maintaining high productivity and standards over extended shifts in remote conditions
