Position Summary

The Pastry Sous Chef is the daily operator and second-in-command of the pastry kitchen.

Build and execute daily/weekly production plans; set pars and assign station tasks to meet covers, banquets, and retail/pastry case needs.
Uphold standardized recipes, textures, bakes, and finishes; run tastings and provide real-time coaching.
Maintain version control for specs and SOPs; document changes and train the team accordingly.

Service Execution & Plating

Set and run the pastry service station; coordinate with expo on coursing and ticket times.
Ensure plate presentations meet brand standards (temperature, texture, garnish, cleanliness).
Lead “fix-now” recovery for remakes and special requests (allergies/dietary).

Menu Support, R&D & Seasonality

Partner with the Executive Pastry Chef on seasonal features, tastings, and rollouts; ensure mise en place and training precede launch.
Provide data-informed feedback on sales mix, yields, and waste to refine offerings.

Food Safety, Sanitation & Compliance

Enforce DOH/HACCP standards: cooling logs, hot/cold holding, allergen and cross-contact controls, and personal hygiene.
Maintain cleaning schedules for equipment, smallwares, walk-ins, and dry storage; ensure safe chemical/PPE use.
Prepare for inspections; correct violations immediately and train to prevent recurrence.

Inventory, COGS & Procurement

Own pastry inventory accuracy, yield tracking, and waste logs; verify receiving quality/temperatures and storage by zone.
Build pars and place/track orders (dairy, dry goods, chocolate, fruit, décor); safeguard portioning and batch sizes to meet COGS targets.
Partner with vendors on quality, pricing, and substitutions; escalate shortages with solutions.

People Leadership & Training

Recruit, onboard, and develop pastry cooks; deliver timely, documented feedback and recognition.
Cross-train the team across stations (lamination, entremets, plated desserts, viennoiserie as applicable).
Foster a respectful, inclusive, learning-focused culture with strong communication and professionalism.

Equipment, Facilities & R&M

Ensure proper use and daily care of mixers, sheeters, proofers, combi/ deck ovens, blast chillers, tempering machines, dehydrators, and small tools.
Perform basic maintenance and calibration (scales, thermometers); tag out unsafe equipment and submit/track work orders.

Events, Banquets & Openings (as applicable)

Execute BEOs and tastings to spec, on time and to cost; stage pulls and timelines for large programs.
Support openings/seasonal transitions with hiring, training, prep builds, and stabilization.

Required Qualifications

4–6+ years professional pastry/bakery experience with 1–2+ years in a lead or sous role (upscale/fine dining or hotel preferred).
Mastery of core pastry techniques (mixing methods, lamination, custards/mousses, chocolate tempering, icings/glazes, doughs/batters) and strong plating skills.
Demonstrated success leading teams, managing production schedules, and controlling inventory/COGS.
Deep knowledge of HACCP/food safety; ServSafe Manager or equivalent (or ability to obtain).
Organized, calm under pressure, and an effective communicator; proficient with Google Workspace and KDS/POS basics.
Schedule flexibility (early mornings, nights, weekends, holidays).

Working Conditions & Physical Requirements

Stand/move for extended periods (up to 8+ hours); frequent bending, reaching, and repetitive motions.
Lift/carry/push/pull up to 35–50 lbs. (bags of flour/sugar, sheet trays, equipment).
Frequent exposure to heat, refrigeration, and cleaning chemicals; slip-resistant footwear required.
