Position Summary

The Sous Chef is a hands-on kitchen leader who ensures daily prep, service, and sanitation meet JAG standards. You’ll run the line during assigned services, coach cooks, manage station pars and ticket flow, uphold food safety compliance, and support inventory and COGS discipline—partnering closely with the Chef de Cuisine/Executive Chef to deliver consistent quality, speed, and teamwork.

Key Responsibilities

Culinary Standards & Training

Lead line checks and pre-service tastings; calibrate seasoning, temperatures, texture, and plating to spec.

Uphold standardized recipes/SOPs; communicate updates and spot-train on techniques in real time.

Coach cooks on knife skills, fire management, station organization, and expo discipline.

Service Execution & Expo

Own the pass or a key station during assigned services; protect window times and quality.

Monitor KDS/printers; communicate pacing, 86s, and low pars to FOH leadership promptly.

Drive immediate recovery for remakes and service issues, capture learnings in manager logs.

Prep, Pars & Production

Inventory, COGS & Ordering

Assist with ordering and receiving; verify quality/temperatures and proper storage by zone.

Maintain inventory accuracy and waste logs; reinforce portioning and recipe adherence to meet COGS targets.

Flag shortages and propose substitutions that protect quality and margin.

Labor, Scheduling & Deployment

Provide input on schedules to match volume and skill mix; manage breaks and deployment in shift.

Cross-train team across stations to maintain coverage and growth opportunities.

Equipment, Facilities & R&M

Ensure safe operation and daily maintenance of kitchen equipment (grills, fryers, ovens, slicers, immersion blenders).

Filter fryers, clean hoods/filters per schedule; submit/track work orders and tag out unsafe equipment.

Events, Banquets & Openings (as applicable)

Execute BEOs, PDR, and off-site activations to standard, on time and to cost.

Support openings and seasonal transitions: hiring support, training, tastings, prep builds, and stabilization.

Knowledge of HACCP/food safety; ServSafe Manager or equivalent (or ability to obtain).
Proven ability to coach teams, stay organized under pressure, and communicate clearly.
