Supervise and train kitchen staff to maintain high standards of food safety, sanitation, and teamwork

Assist with seasonal menu development, costing, and sourcing premium ingredients

Act as the kitchen leader in the Executive Chef’s absence, ensuring smooth execution of all services

Qualifications

5+ years of culinary leadership experience, ideally in catering

Degree or certification from a recognized culinary school preferred

Proven expertise in upscale, event-driven cuisine and high-volume execution

Exceptional leadership, organizational, and time management skills

Deep knowledge of food safety protocols and kitchen compliance

Flexible schedule, including availability for weekends and extended hours as needed
