Head Chef — The Spinster Sisters

Santa Rosa, CA | Full-Time

Launched in 2012 The Spinster Sisters is an award winning neighborhood favorite in Santa Rosa’s Arts District, rooted in the flavors and farmers of Sonoma County. We believe a great restaurant starts with our local growers, our community, and our team. We’re looking for a Head Chef who shares that philosophy and is ready to lead our kitchen into its next chapter.

As Head Chef, you’ll focus on both the creative vision and the day-to-day operations of our kitchen. We are looking for menus that celebrate the season, a leader who inspires a talented culinary team, and ensures every plate that leaves the kitchen reflects our commitment to quality and hospitality. This is a hands-on leadership role for someone who loves to cook as much as they love to build culture.

The Spinster Sisters has spent thirteen years earning its place as a cornerstone of the Santa Rosa dining scene, and the right Head Chef will honor that legacy while bringing a fresh eye to what’s next. You’ll develop seasonal menus that celebrate the local farmers and flavors our guests have come to love, while introducing new ideas, techniques, and perspectives that keep the kitchen and the community excited.
