$120k

One Haus Recruiting

Executive Chef

Location: San Francisco, CA

Cuisine: Fine Dining | Mediterranean/Middle Eastern

Base Salary: $120,000

Relocation Assistance: Yes

Position Overview

We are seeking a highly skilled and disciplined Executive Chef to lead the culinary program for a new, elevated Middle Eastern concept opening in San Francisco. This role requires a chef who can successfully balance refined culinary execution with high-volume operations, while building a strong kitchen culture and operational infrastructure from the ground up.

The ideal candidate is a systems-driven leader with a strong foundation in structured restaurant groups, capable of delivering consistent, high-quality cuisine in a fast-paced environment.

Ideal Candidate Profile

  • Background in well-regarded, operationally structured restaurant groups known for strong culinary and service standards
  • Experience leading kitchens with meaningful volume, beyond purely tasting menu environments
  • Proven ability to oversee food cost, labor management, purchasing, and inventory systems
  • Strong experience building and maintaining SOPs, kitchen systems, and operational frameworks
  • Demonstrated leadership skills with a focus on team development, accountability, and culture building

Culinary Focus

Experience with Mediterranean or Middle Eastern cuisine is highly valued but not required. Candidates without direct experience should demonstrate a genuine, informed interest in the cuisine, including an understanding of its ingredients, techniques, and cultural context.

What We Are Looking For

  • A chef who combines technical refinement with operational discipline
  • A leader who thrives in both hands-on execution and strategic oversight
  • Someone capable of building a kitchen team and infrastructure from the ground up
  • A professional who understands how to scale quality while maintaining consistency

Compensation & Benefits

  • Base Salary: $120,000 annually
  • Bonus: Performance-based bonus structure
  • Health Insurance: 100% employer-paid medical coverage
  • Relocation Assistance: Up to $5,000 reimbursement (based on receipts)
  • Paid Time Off: 2 weeks annually

Equal Opportunity Employer

We are committed to building an inclusive workplace and encourage candidates from diverse backgrounds to apply. #AA
