Relocate to Savannah: Solution-Driven Sous Chef to Elevate a Scratch Kitchen
Are you a solution-driven culinarian battling burnout in a high-cost culinary hub and looking for a better pace of life? Our Executive Chef made the move from New York City to find exactly that, and now he is looking for a collaborative, high-energy Sous Chef to help lead the vision of making our property the premier eating and drinking destination in the city. If you are eager for a fresh start to blaze trails without sacrificing your culinary ambition, Savannah is calling.
The Mission
Over the last few months, we've completely transitioned away from "Cisco boxes" to a 100% scratch operation. Now, we need a strong second-in-command to help build an incubator for culinary talent and train a team that is eager to learn better techniques.
The Role
You will serve as the independent, solution-driven leader who tackles challenges head-on rather than worrying about little things that are out of our control. In this unpredictable hospitality environment, you will navigate challenges alongside the Executive Chef and tackle hard tasks without a silver platter. Your primary focus will be to elevate the team's technique and instill a culture of culinary education, ensuring the kitchen operates as a true incubator for talent.
Culture & Lifestyle
We are looking for someone who isn't just looking for a paycheck but has the dedication to help build something that will be recognized nationally. Whether you are an out-of-towner looking to relocate to develop your career or simply seeking creative freedom in a more affordable market, we want your passion. We are highly open to relocation, and our Chef is ready to help you navigate the move and share all the good things about the city and our team.
