About Us   

At Marble Mountain Estates, the coast sets the pace. 

We are an estate farm winery and vineyard located on the shores of the Bras d’Or Lake in the heart of Cape Breton. We are passionate about producing small-lot, handcrafted wines that are true expressions of our coastal terroir and winemaker. On our estate vineyard, you’ll find our wine bar, retail market, kitchen, and boutique stays.  

As a young and growing winery, opening for the first time this season, we are building both our brand and our team. We’re looking for people who want to be at the heart of the kitchen experience—helping prepare a small menu of seasonal plates that complement our wines and reflect the flavours, seasons and coastal culinary traditions of Cape Breton Island.  

Working alongside a small, collaborative team, you will support the preparation of shareable plates and light menu items while helping maintain an organized, efficient kitchen. Every dish we serve should feel thoughtful, fresh, and connected to the experience we are creating for our guests. 

This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys working with fresh ingredients, takes pride in presentation, and thrives in a collaborative, fast-paced environment.

• Support the kitchen team with daily prep and service needs

• Follow food safety guidelines and proper food handling procedures

What We’re Looking For 

• Food Safe Level 1 certification 

• Previous kitchen or food preparation experience  

• Ability to work efficiently in a fast-paced environment 

• Strong attention to detail, cleanliness, organization, and food presentation 

• Positive attitude and ability to work well within a small team
