Overview

Executive Chef

USRL Holdings | NX Level Sports Complex & Unity Senior Living
Location: Wisconsin
Job Type: Full-Time
Schedule: Primarily daytime; flexibility required for special events, holidays, and business needs
Pay: Competitive salary based on experience

About the Role

USRL Holdings is seeking an experienced, creative, and hands-on Executive Chef to lead food and beverage operations across two unique properties: NX Level Sports Complex and Unity Senior Living.

This is an exciting opportunity for a chef who enjoys variety and wants to build and oversee food programs in both a high-energy sports and entertainment environment and a residential senior-living community.

The Executive Chef will be responsible for menu development, food preparation, kitchen operations, purchasing, inventory, food cost management, sanitation, quality control, and overall culinary standards across both locations.

The ideal candidate is equally comfortable developing an elevated burger or flatbread menu for athletes and families at NX Level and preparing nutritious, appealing, and resident-focused meals for a 27-resident senior living community.

About NX Level Sports Complex

NX Level is a multi-sport training and recreation facility offering athletic training, strength and conditioning, volleyball, pickleball, batting cages, basketball, and other sports and fitness programs.

Its food and beverage operation goes well beyond traditional concessions. The Executive Chef will oversee an elevated, modern menu featuring items such as:

Acai bowls
Fresh smoothies
Burgers
Flatbreads
Specialty snacks and concession items
Family-friendly food options
Full-service bar offerings
Seasonal and special-event menu items

The chef will have an opportunity to help shape the culinary identity of NX Level and develop menus that are high-quality, approachable, profitable, and appropriate for a busy sports and entertainment environment.

About Unity Senior Living

Unity Senior Living is a 27-resident assisted living community focused on providing high-quality care and a comfortable, homelike environment for its residents.

The Executive Chef will oversee the community's food service program, including preparation of approximately 2–3 meals per day for up to 27 residents, snacks, and special meals.

Responsibilities will include:

Developing rotating menus
Preparing nutritious and appealing meals
Accommodating dietary restrictions and physician-ordered diets
Providing appropriate texture-modified meals when required
Preparing special holiday and celebration meals
Maintaining appropriate portion control
Working with management and caregivers regarding resident preferences and dietary needs
Maintaining a clean, safe, and welcoming kitchen environment

The successful candidate will understand that senior living dining is about more than simply preparing food—it is an important part of residents' daily quality of life.

Organized and financially responsible
Comfortable managing food costs and inventory
A strong communicator and team leader
Comfortable working independently and taking ownership
