Kitchen Support & Supervision

• Step in to support or briefly oversee the brigade when the Sous Chef is occupied elsewhere
• Help train, guide, and set an example for Commis Chefs and kitchen trainees
• Support a culture of discipline, teamwork, and continuous improvement

Operations & Quality Control

• Maintain organization, cleanliness, and efficiency at assigned stations
• Follow HACCP, hygiene, and food safety protocols at all times
• Flag quality or consistency issues to the Sous Chef or Executive Chef promptly
• Assist with opening/closing kitchen checklists and equipment upkeep

Cost Control & Inventory

• Practice careful portion control and minimize waste in daily prep
• Assist with stock checks, rotation (FIFO), and basic inventory tracking
• Support accurate ordering by communicating par levels and shortages to senior chefs

Collaboration & Guest Experience

• Coordinate with front-of-house and senior kitchen staff to ensure timely, accurate service
• Accommodate special dietary requests and allergen protocols with care and accuracy
• Assist during VIP service, chef's table experiences, and special events as needed

Qualifications & Experience

• Minimum 2–4 years' experience in a professional kitchen, ideally within fine-dining or upscale hospitality
• Solid foundation in classical or modern culinary techniques
• Experience working in a fast-paced, standards-driven kitchen environment
• Formal culinary education preferred, though strong hands-on experience will be considered
• Eagerness to grow into a senior sous chef role, with a strong sense of discipline and attention to detail

What We Offer

• Competitive salary plus gratuities.
• The opportunity to work with a premium beverage program and a high-caliber team.
