Full Job Description

Sous Chef | Culinary Team Leader

Reports to: Head Chef & General Manager

Salary: $45,000-$50,000 annually + Benefits

We believe kitchens should build people—not burn them out.

We’re looking for a Sous Chef who wants to do more than run a shift.

We’re looking for someone who enjoys teaching, coaching, and developing people while producing exceptional food.

This is a working leadership position. Every shift you’ll be on the line, cooking alongside your team, setting the pace, reinforcing standards, solving problems, and helping others improve.

You’ll work closely with the Head Chef and General Manager to create a kitchen built on consistency, accountability, respect, and teamwork.

If your idea of leadership is earning respect through your actions instead of demanding it through your title, we’d like to meet you.

What You’ll Do

Every day you’ll help create an environment where both food and people improve.

Responsibilities include:

Working side-by-side with the culinary team during production.
Coaching and developing cooks through hands-on training.
Reinforcing food quality, sanitation, safety, recipes, and operational standards.
Holding team members accountable while treating everyone with professionalism and respect.
Providing clear direction, timely feedback, and consistent follow-through.
Supporting the Head Chef and General Manager in executing daily operations and developing a strong kitchen culture.
Helping build a team that takes pride in their work and in one another.

The Leader We’re Looking For

The right person for this role:

Leads with humility and integrity.
Understands that accountability and encouragement work together.
Communicates with emotional intelligence, especially when conversations become difficult.
Stays calm under pressure and helps others do the same.
Is organized, dependable, and follows through on commitments.
Enjoys mentoring others and celebrating their growth.
Believes every shift is an opportunity to make the team stronger than it was yesterday.

What You’ll Find Here

We’re serious about food, but we’re even more serious about our people.

You’ll join a leadership team that believes:

Great leaders work beside their teams.
High standards and respect should always go together.
Coaching is more effective than criticizing.
Consistency creates great kitchens.
Every team member deserves the opportunity to grow.

If those ideas resonate with you, you’ll fit right in.

Compensation & Benefits

$48,000 annual salary
Two days off each week
401(k) with company match
Health insurance
Two weeks of paid vacation annually

Join Our Team

This is an opportunity to become part of a leadership team that values professionalism, teamwork, and continuous improvement.

If you’re looking for a kitchen where leadership is earned, expectations are clear, and developing people is just as important as producing great food, we’d love to hear from you.

Pay: $45,000.00 - $50,000.00 per year

Benefits:
