High Volume Sous Chef

Sous Chef Opportunity

We're looking for a hands-on Sous Chef to join a well-respected, high-volume restaurant known for its strong culture, supportive leadership, and consistency-driven operations.

This is an excellent opportunity for a Sous Chef who enjoys being in the middle of the action, leading a team, and running a clean, organized, high-performing kitchen without the burnout or chaos that often comes with the role.

What You'll Do:

• Lead nightly kitchen operations and oversee closing shifts
• Manage and support a small, tight-knit BOH team
• Ensure standards, cleanliness, and organization are consistently executed
• Oversee inventory and product control
• Jump on expo or the line as needed during service
• Help maintain a kitchen that runs smoothly, efficiently, and with pride

What We're Looking For:

• Sous Chef or Kitchen Manager experience in a high-volume restaurant
• Strong leadership skills able to hold a team accountable while earning respect
• Organized, detail-oriented, and systems-minded
• Comfortable working independently and making decisions
• A calm, steady presence during service (not passive, not explosive)
• Someone who leads by example and takes pride in a clean, well-run kitchen

Why This Role Stands Out:

• Supportive leadership structure you're not on an island
• Clear systems and processes already in place
• Reasonable hours and sustainable workload
• Strong, established team and culture
• Opportunity to grow within a stable and respected restaurant group

Compensation & Benefits:

• Base salary around $62,000
• Company-paid insurance (approx. $2,500 value)
• 2 weeks PTO + paid holidays
• 401(k) with strong company match
