Food has lost its soul to modern convenience. And with it, it has lost the power to nourish, inspire, and connect us. So in 2018, CookUnity was founded as the first-of-its-kind platform that connects the world with the source of truly great food: chefs. Today, CookUnity delivers 50 million meals a year from the industry’s best chefs to homes all over the country. Fresh. Ready-to-eat. And crafted with the passion that nourishes body and soul.
Unwilling to stop there, CookUnity is expanding beyond delivery to become an ever-innovating marketplace focused on our singular mission: empower Chefs to nourish the world.
If that mission has you hungry in more ways than one, you’ve found the right job posting.
As Senior Director, Operations you will own and scale one of CookUnity’s most critical markets — responsible for building a best-in-class operation that sets the standard for the company.
This role goes beyond managing operations — you will design, optimize, and evolve a multi-facility system that delivers exceptional quality, speed, and reliability at scale.
You’ll operate at both a strategic and executional level: shaping the long-term operating model while staying close enough to the floor to identify issues, remove bottlenecks, and drive results in real time.
We believe great leadership starts with alignment on vision, values, and ways of working. To give you deeper insight into who we are and what we’re looking for, we invite you to explore CookUnity's Leadership Principles – the values and behaviors that guide how we operate, collaborate, and scale.
