Third Time Together - Line Cook

About Third Time Together

We are hospitality first. Everything at Third Time starts and ends with the guest experience and how we can make that the best possible experience out there. We were recently awarded Best of Boston and we’re opening our first ever permanent location in Kendall Square. This is your chance to join a young, award‑winning concept at a pivotal moment and help shape what comes next.

The most important thing is who you are as a person and what sort of things you are about. We are looking for the kind of person who runs after a stranger on the street to return a dropped scarf, who stops by with a plate of cookies to welcome a new family to the neighborhood, or who offers to help carry a stranger’s heavy stroller up the subway stairs.

The kind of truly hospitable person, in other words, who wants to do good things, not for financial gain or some sort of karmic bump, but because the idea of bestowing graciousness upon others makes their own day better. This quality is what we do at Third Time Together. For the right candidate, everything else can be taught!
