Junior Sous Chef

Junior Sous Chef | Long Hospitality

We’re looking for a disciplined, high-energy Junior Sous Chef to join the line. At Long Hospitality, we believe the best leaders are the ones who set the pace. This isn’t a role for someone who wants to sit in the office; it’s for the "player-coach" who thrives in the heat of service and takes pride in the silent details that make a restaurant run.

You are the bridge between the vision and the plate. You’ll be responsible for keeping the standards high, the team sharp, and the energy focused.

The Role

• Anchor the Service: You are the heartbeat of the line. Whether you’re jumping onto a station or managing the pass, you ensure every dish meets our standards for consistency and soul.

• Mentor the Team: We don't just cook; we grow. You’ll spend your time coaching cooks on technique, efficiency, and the "Danbi" way of doing things.

• Operational Ownership: You’ll assist with inventory, ordering, and waste management. You treat the walk-in and the dry storage like they’re your own.

• Quality Control: From the morning prep list to the final plate of the night, you are the final filter. You taste everything and catch the small mistakes before they reach the guest.

• Maintain the Standard: You lead by example. If a station is messy or a label is missing, you fix it—and then you teach the team why it matters.

Who You Are

• Experienced: 3+ years in high-volume, high-standard kitchens. You’ve mastered the stations and you’re ready to lead them.

• Technically Sharp: Your knife skills are precise, your heat management is intuitive, and your palate is refined.

• Composed: You lead with a calm, professional "Yes, Chef" energy. You don't get rattled when the tickets stack up; you get organized.

• Proactive: You see the "invisible" tasks—the prep that’s running low, the equipment that needs care, the teammate who needs a hand.
