Full Job Description

The Red Door is seeking an accomplished Executive Chef to lead and evolve our culinary program in the San Francisco Bay Area. This role is designed for a chef with a strong creative voice, deep technical foundation, and proven experience executing high-volume, high-quality cuisine in a catering or large-scale event environment.

This is an opportunity to shape the culinary identity of a growing, chef-driven events company working at some of the most iconic venues in the Bay Area.

Develop staffing models for multi-event operations, including freelance and event staff

Oversee commissary kitchen operations and production flow

Build and manage relationships with farmers, purveyors, and vendors, with a focus on quality and cost efficiency

Maintain compliance with all health, sanitation, and safety standards

Implement SOPs and quality control systems to ensure consistency at scale

Conduct post-event reviews to drive continuous improvement

Ideal Candidate

Proven experience as an Executive Chef or equivalent senior culinary leadership role

8+ years of professional kitchen experience, including multiple years leading teams in a high-volume environment
