Banger's is a sausage house and beer garden located on Rainey Street in Downtown Austin, Texas. We opened our doors in 2012 and currently have 202 beers on tap, (which is the largest tap wall in the state of Texas), a beer cellar for aging beers, a pickling facility, a meat curing facility, and a small-scale meat-processing facility for whole animal butchery and fresh sausage production.

We also have a standalone smokehouse that has the distinction of being the first whole hog BBQ establishment in Texas history.

The whole facility doubles as a live music and private event center with a standing-room occupancy of 1,800 people.

However, the purpose of our business is not restaurants, it s people. Banger s is really about creating a culture that is an ecosystem for human growth and potential.

A work environment where the work you do on yourself and the work you do for the organization are intertwined within your daily routines.

Yes, we still want to create a world-class operation, but that should be the natural byproduct of the world-class people that make up our company and culture.

Working hand in hand with the General Manager, collaborating with the owner, and a core member of Banger s Leadership Team, the Chef is responsible for the development & execution of Banger s Back-of-House (BoH) operational strategy and collaborating on and implementing the BoH vision and menus.

The Chef also contributes to the development of the organization's strategic goals.

Your focus is on bringing our BoH operational processes and execution to the next level. You're a hands-on doer, a planner, and a delegator.

A working chef, who spends the bulk of their time in the kitchen, not in the office. You're still comfortable on both sides of the pass and enjoy jumping on the line if we're short a person or to coach a cook on their technique.

You're an experienced, process-driven leader who can manage restaurant operations as we go through rapid growth. More than that, you build systems and processes to scale up execution capabilities.

Ensuring the consistent execution of Banger s classic menu items while still innovating to bring new ones to life. This is not a chef-driven concept and there is no place for someone with a big ego.

We are a team here, we solicit honest feedback and seek out dissenting opinions from all levels of the organization because we know that s how we get to great.

You should love the things we do at Banger s. We love old-school stuff done the old-school way. Simple food that is designed to be served to the masses.

Sausage making, pickling, curing, cooking with fire, and smoking meats. We take a lot of pride in serving seemingly simple food, of the highest quality, at a price point everyone can afford.

If you are considering this opportunity then you should as well.

Location

The heart of Rainey Street in Downtown Austin, TX. (79 Rainey St. Austin, TX 78701)

Schedule

Work-life balance is important to us. Our core value of Grit puts it perfectly :

Life is for living. We play as hard as we work & make time for the things we love. We strive for balance but we handle our shit.

This industry attracts a lot of workaholics so if that s you, this might not be a good fit. Yes, we work hard, but we should build good teams and systems so work is not all that we do.

Your typical work week should be in the 45-55 hour range and it is always our goal to give everyone two consecutive days off if that's what you want.

Yes, this is the restaurant industry and things come up, people call out, huge buyouts happen and we imagine when you first get started you'll be working closer to 55 hours than 45 hours.

However, the goal is a balanced life for you and your team.
