Floater Supervisor (Relief Captain) - Kennedy Catering Corporation

Kennedy Catering Corporation (KCC) is hiring a Floater Supervisor (Relief Captain) for our 2026 Muskoka camp season.

This is our most important support role. You move between camps to cover call-outs, support setup weeks, lead service on short notice, and keep standards high. You must be manager-level, calm under pressure, and able to bake enough to keep things running if a baker is out.

If you’re the type who can walk into a messy kitchen and make it better in one shift, we want you.

Completion bonus: 1 extra week of pay after season contract completion

Contract dates: We hire for multiple Muskoka camps. Roles run between April 1 and Oct 31, 2026, depending on the site. Some roles start in April, most start in May–June, and most end mid-Sept. Please apply with your exact available start and end dates.
