Qualifications:

Experience as a Corporate Executive Chef, Director of Culinary, or single-unit Executive Chef at first-rate fine dining establishments.
Strong background in catering and restaurant management preferred.
Proven supervising experience leading culinary teams in fast-paced environments.
In-depth knowledge of food production processes, menu planning, and kitchen management principles.
Familiarity with banquet experience, dietary accommodations, inventory management, and food safety regulations.
Demonstrated leadership skills with the ability to motivate teams and manage multiple priorities effectively.
Excellent communication skills to collaborate across departments and ensure smooth operations from kitchen to service areas.

Pay: $80,000.00 - $130,000.00 per year
