Cook - Historic Properties

About the role

Why Mayo Clinic Mayo Clinic is top-ranked in more specialties than any other care provider according to U.S. News & World Report. As we work together to put the needs of the patient first, we are also dedicated to our employees, investing in competitive compensation and comprehensive benefit plans – to take care of you and your family, now and in the future. And with continuing education and advancement opportunities at every turn, you can build a long, successful career with Mayo Clinic.

Joining the Mayo Clinic Historic Properties culinary team offers a unique experience in the culinary world. In addition to being eligible for the full Mayo Clinic benefit package (including: health and dental insurance, PTO, pension/retirement plan), what sets this team apart from most kitchens is its well-established reputation for maintaining a calm, positive atmosphere, creating an inviting and supportive workplace, where individuals can thrive without the stress typically associated with culinary environments. One of the most appealing aspects is the schedule—there are very limited weekend shifts, and weekday dinner service concludes much earlier than in traditional restaurants. This means you can enjoy a better work-life balance, while being part of a team that values professionalism and camaraderie.

Just as our reputation has spread beyond our Minnesota roots, so have our locations. Today, our employees are located at our three major campuses in Phoenix/Scottsdale, Arizona, Jacksonville, Florida, Rochester, Minnesota, and at Mayo Clinic Health System campuses throughout Midwestern communities, and at our international locations. Each Mayo Clinic location is a special place where our employees thrive in both their work and personal lives.
