- Oversee upscale event production from planning through execution, ensuring seamless delivery and elevated presentation
- Maintain exceptional standards for food quality, presentation, and sanitation
- Manage inventory, food cost, and labor efficiency while upholding profitability
- Collaborate with senior leadership, front-of-house managers, and event teams to ensure seamless service
- Foster a professional, positive, and productive kitchen culture
What We’re Looking For:
- Proven experience as an Executive Chef or Senior Sous in an upscale dining, luxury hospitality, or event-driven environment
- Must possess a strong background leading high-end events, executive functions, and elevated banquet operations
- Demonstrated success executing polished culinary experiences for VIP guests and high-profile clientele
- Strong background in both a la carte and banquet production
- Experience overseeing breakfast service along with refined all-day culinary operations
- Creative, organized, and hands-on with a commitment to culinary excellence
- Flexible availability based on operational and event needs

Why Join Us:
