Job Description
Join the Team at Switchback Beer Garden & Smokehouse!
Craft-Casual Dining | 100% Employee-Owned | Burlington, VT
We're growing rapidly in Burlington’s food scene - a craft-casual beer garden and smokehouse with a focus on community, elevated cuisine, and contagious energy. Since opening 2+ years ago we’ve built an awesome team, but we’re looking to bring on one or two more part-time and full-time Back of House (BOH) team members.

What We’re Looking For:
We want chefs and kitchen staff who are:
- Passionate about great food and quality ingredients
- Reliable and show up on time, every time
- Self-motivated and ready to take initiative
- Team players who thrive in a collaborative environment
Our approach blends casual dining with elevated flavors — drawing inspiration from various styles of smokehouse items to create something new and exciting. We value a team-first mentality, where both Front of House and Back of House support one another. This is more than just a job - it’s a fun, fast-paced, and rewarding work environment where your ideas and energy matter.
BOH Shifts:
- Part-Time
- Tuesday – Sunday | Between 12 PM – 9 PM
- Schedule flexibility is a plus!
If you're ready to bring your culinary skills to one of the hot new spots in Burlington and have a great time doing it, we’d love to meet you.
