ASSISTANT KITCHEN MANAGER (SOUS CHEF)

Wally s Operating Company LLC

Job Description

Job Description

Assistant Kitchen Manager/ Sous Chef

Leadership Role at Wally’s | Bonus Eligible | Full Benefits

Lead a High-Volume Kitchen. Build a Team. Deliver Great Food.

Wally’s is looking for a hands-on kitchen leader who thrives in a fast-paced environment and takes pride in quality, consistency, and team development.

As a Sous Chef / Assistant Kitchen Manager, you’ll work side-by-side with the Executive Chef to run daily kitchen operations, develop your team, and ensure every item we serve meets Wally’s standards.

If you enjoy leading people, staying busy, and being part of a high-energy kitchen , this is the role for you.

Why Wally’s?

We take care of our leaders:

  • Quarterly Bonus Opportunities
  • 401(k) with 5% Company Match
  • Company-Paid Medical Plan Option
  • Dental, Vision, Life Insurance
  • PTO + Disability Coverage (STD/LTD)
  • HSA & FSA Options
What You’ll Do

You’ll be a key leader in the kitchen, responsible for:

???? Leading the Kitchen Team
Set the tone, support your team, and drive a strong, accountable culture.

???? Developing People
Train, coach, and grow team members into high performers.

???? Owning Food Quality
Ensure consistency across all products—from BBQ and smoked meats to bakery and grab-and-go items.

???? Driving Food Safety
Hold the highest standards in sanitation, handling, and compliance.

???? Supporting Operations
Help manage inventory, food cost, and daily performance.

???? Delivering Great Guest Experiences
Make sure every guest leaves satisfied—quick service, great food, no excuses.

What We’re Looking For
  • 2–3 years of kitchen or food service leadership experience
  • Experience leading or supervising a team
  • Strong communication and problem-solving skills
  • Ability to perform in a high-volume, fast-paced kitchen
  • Flexible schedule (weekends & holidays included)
  • Reliable, team-focused, and ready to lead from the front
Why This Role Stands Out

This isn’t a back-of-house support role—this is a leadership position with real impact.

You’ll:

  • Help run one of the busiest kitchens in the region
  • Build and develop a team
  • Be part of a growing company with opportunity to advance
