Job Description

$70,000–$80,000 + Bonus | 100% Paid Health Insurance | 401(k) + Match | PTO

We are seeking an accomplished Executive Sous Chef to join a highly regarded, chef-driven restaurant operation. This is an excellent opportunity for a culinary leader who has built their career in upscale or fine-dining, scratch-kitchen environments and is equally comfortable driving exceptional food quality and executing at significant volume.

The ideal candidate is a hands-on chef and strong kitchen leader who understands that elevated cuisine requires more than creativity—it requires discipline, consistency, organization, strong systems, and the ability to develop a team. This individual will work closely with the Executive Chef to lead day-to-day culinary operations while maintaining high standards for food quality, presentation, sanitation, cost control, and team performance.

This opportunity is best suited for a chef who has a strong culinary foundation, thrives in a busy professional kitchen, and wants to continue developing within a respected hospitality organization.

Executive Sous Chef Responsibilities:

  • Lead kitchen operations for a high-volume, scratch, guest-driven upscale restaurant
  • Oversee daily execution, prep, sanitation, and service standards
  • Develop and mentor back-of-house staff in a supportive, fast-paced environment
  • Uphold consistency and quality across seasonal chef-inspired menus

Executive Sous Chef Qualifications:

  • 5+ years as Executive Sous Chef, Sous Chef, or Chef de Cuisine in an upscale casual, scratch kitchen
  • Strong kitchen systems, team leadership, and quality control background
  • Passionate about food and people—no egos, no pretense
  • Flexible availability, including evenings and weekends

Executive Sous Chef compensation:

  • $70K–$80K base + bonus
  • 100% employer-paid health insurance
  • 401(k) with match
  • PTO and long-term career growth
  • Stable leadership team and a culture built on respect
