Full Job Description

ABOUT THE ROLE

Crave-It Nutrition is seeking a skilled, experienced Sous Chef to support the Kitchen Manager & Head Chef in running our school food service program at St. Pius Catholic School in Dallas, TX. This role is for a true culinary professional — someone who has trained and worked in high-quality restaurant kitchens and brings that level of technique, speed, and standards to a school environment.

You'll be a hands-on kitchen leader: cooking daily, supervising prep and service, and stepping in to run the kitchen when the Head Chef is unavailable. This is a great fit for someone who wants to bring real culinary craft to a meaningful, community-focused setting — without the late nights and high-turnover chaos of restaurant life.

PRIMARY RESPONSIBILITIES

Culinary Execution

Execute daily menu items with precision, consistency, and strong knife and cooking technique
Support menu development alongside the Head Chef, bringing creative ideas for scratch-cooked, high-quality dishes
Maintain food quality standards across every station and every service
Taste, season, and adjust dishes throughout service to ensure consistent quality

Kitchen Leadership

Supervise and direct cooks and prep staff during daily production and service
Run the kitchen independently in the Head Chef's absence, including opening/closing procedures
Train kitchen staff on proper techniques, recipes, and food safety standards
Maintain a clean, organized, and fully compliant kitchen in accordance with health codes

Operations & Production

Manage prep lists, production timelines, and station setup to ensure smooth, on-time service
Monitor portioning, plating, and presentation standards
Track inventory, assist with ordering, and help minimize food waste
Maintain food safety logs, temperature checks, and receiving documentation
Make grocery store runs as needed to support inventory and last-minute ingredient needs
Transport and deliver prepared meals to satellite school locations as needed

QUALIFICATIONS & REQUIREMENTS

Required

Minimum 5-7 years of professional kitchen experience, including time in a high-quality, fast-paced restaurant environment
Strong, demonstrated culinary skills — knife work, cooking technique, seasoning, and plating
Experience supervising or leading other cooks
Ability to work efficiently and maintain quality standards under pressure
Reliable personal vehicle and valid driver's license — required for grocery runs and meal deliveries to a satellite school location
Reliable, punctual, and consistent attendance
Ability to pass a comprehensive criminal background check
Willingness to complete Safe Environment Training as required by the Diocese
Current Food Handler or Food Manager's Certificate (or ability to obtain prior to start date)
Physical ability to stand for extended periods, lift up to 50 lbs, and work in a fast-paced kitchen environment

Preferred

Culinary school training or formal culinary education
Experience in scratch-cooking, menu development, or high-volume production
Experience in school food service, childcare food programs, or institutional cooking
Knowledge of common food allergies and allergen-safe kitchen protocols
Bilingual in English and Spanish

WHO YOU ARE

You've earned your stripes in a real kitchen — you know what it means to hit the line clean, move with purpose, and never let quality slip during a rush. You're looking for a role where your skills are valued and put to good use, but where the hours and intensity support a sustainable, balanced life. You're dependable and resourceful — equally comfortable running a station, running a quick grocery errand, or hopping in the car to get meals where they need to go. You lead by example, work well alongside your team, and take pride in every plate that goes out.

COMPENSATION & BENEFITS

Competitive hourly based on experience
Mileage reimbursement for grocery runs and satellite school deliveries
School-year schedule with potential for summer opportunities
Paid training and onboarding through Crave-It Nutrition
Supportive regional management team and structured operational systems
Opportunity to grow with a Texas-based food service company managing 65+ locations

HOW TO APPLY

To apply, submit your resume and a brief note describing your culinary background and restaurant experience. Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis. Early applications are encouraged as we are targeting an August onboarding date.

Average schedule is 7am to 2pm Monday through Friday during the school year
