Sous Chef

About Nura ( Nura is an event space and is not affiliated with Nura Restaurant)

Nura creates high-end events, parties, and gatherings designed as complete, immersive experiences. Our events bring together music, food, and above all, atmosphere. We aim to create something magical: a warm, familial, comfortable environment where guests feel both elevated and at ease.

Our food is high-end rustic—carefully thought out, deeply flavorful, and prepared with intention. Unlike restaurant service, our preparation style is rooted in catering, emphasizing prep-heavy, meticulous, and disciplined work, with plating and service kept intentionally simple and unpretentious.

The Position

We are currently looking to hire a Sous Chef to work alongside our Head Chef to run day-to-day kitchen operations for events and prep days. This is a hands-on leadership role combining cooking, organization, and team management.

Events typically serve 40–65 guests . Each event involves approximately 12 hours of prep on the day prior to the event and approximately 10 hours on the day of the event.

What’s Important to Understand

As mentioned, the environment we create for our guests begins with our team. The sous chef plays a central role in setting tone, rhythm, and standards in the kitchen while remaining aligned with the broader vision. We are looking for someone who leads with steadiness, clarity, and respect, and who understands that strong execution comes from both technical skill and thoughtful collaboration.

This role requires someone who communicates clearly; gives and receives feedback constructively; works comfortably within structured systems; values consistency, precision, and repetition; and takes responsibility for the performance and well-being of the team.

Our Approach to Team & Growth

At Nura, we believe that how we care for our team shapes everything we create. We strive to support our people, look out for one another, and build a workplace where individuals feel respected, appreciated, and genuinely cared for. This philosophy is reflected both in how we treat our team and in how we approach compensation.

Chefs who bring presence, accountability, and pride in their work often grow with us over time and may take on broader responsibility as Nura evolves. We are looking for someone who sees this role not only as a job, but as a position of trust within a larger creative structure.
