Maintain Cleanliness & Safety: Ensure the kitchen is clean, organized, and meets all health and safety standards.

What We’re Looking For:

2+ Years of Leadership Experience: Proven experience as a Sous Chef or strong kitchen lead in a scratch kitchen.
Strong Culinary Foundation: You understand kitchen systems, food safety, and how to execute consistently under pressure.
Clear Communicator & Team Player: You lead with calm confidence, give clear direction, and know how to keep a team moving forward.

Growth-Oriented: You’re excited about helping build a long-term, sustainable kitchen culture and growing your own career along the way.
