Become a Narwhal!

Narwhal’s Crafted is launching its first Illinois location, and we’re looking for a reliable, self-motivated back-of-house prep team member to help craft our signature beverages and products. This isn’t a traditional cook or line chef role — the focus is on prepping batches, staying organized, and supporting the team so everything runs smoothly.

• Mix and prepare batches of Narwhal’s signature products.

• Keep your prep area clean, organized, and running efficiently.

• Manage your workflow independently while maintaining quality and timing standards.

• Ensure products are ready to support the front-of-house and the team.

• Help maintain smooth operations behind the scenes.

Who You Are

• Self-sufficient and accountable — pride yourself on doing things right.

• Detail-oriented and organized — consistency is key.

• Great at multitasking — able to handle several prep tasks without losing focus.

• Positive, upbeat, and a team player — contribute to a fun, hardworking culture.

• High school diploma or GED preferred.

• Must be 21 years or older.

• ServSafe certification (we cover the cost).

• Prior restaurant or prep experience is a plus.

Position Details

• Pay: Hourly pay + back-of-house tip pool

• Schedule: Full-time preferred (9:00 AM – 6:00 PM), part-time considered (flexible if needed)

• Days Off: Wednesdays and Sundays (flexible if needed)

• Must be available: Fridays and Saturdays

• Enjoy more off-peak hours than traditional bar roles

• Standing & walking: Constant

• Bending/crouching/stooping: Frequent

• Lifting: Occasionally up to 150 lbs

• Climbing stairs: Occasional

• Grasping: Frequent

• Hearing & communication: Constant

• Sitting: Rare

Why You’ll Love Working Here

• Passion: We love what we do and want our guests to feel that excitement.

• Competence: We take pride in our craft and consistently deliver high-quality experiences.

• Integrity: Positive, team-focused culture where everyone supports each other.

• Growth: Opportunities to develop new skills and grow with our first Illinois location.

• Fun: Rewarding, social role where hard work meets good vibes.
