We are seeking a systems-driven Kitchen Manager to lead our 75-seat open-concept kitchen. Unlike a traditional Executive Chef role, this position focuses on the consistent execution of a high-quality, standardized menu and efficient labor management. You will be working the line alongside 4 hourly cooks while managing the daily operations, training, and inventory.
Core Responsibilities
- On-Site Leadership: Directly manage 4 hourly line cooks; training them to be cross-functional across all stations (Hot, Fry/Grill, Expo, Cold).
- Working the Line: This is a hands-on role. You will work active service shifts to ensure quality control and minimize the need for extra hourly staff.
- Systems Management: Maintain daily inventory counts to support remote ordering; manage prep lists and ensure all SOPs (Standard Operating Procedures) are followed.
- Quality Assurance: Act as the final checkpoint for every plate in our open kitchen, maintaining high standards for the seasonal focused menu.
Qualifications
- 3+ years in a kitchen leadership role (Kitchen Manager, Sous Chef, or Lead Line Cook).
- Strong inventory and cost-control skills.
