We are seeking a motivated, coachable Chef to join our team. This role is perfect for someone early in their culinary career who has a culinary degree and wants to continue learning, growing, and advancing--while getting paid and working alongside experienced professionals.
This is not a role for a know-it-all or negative personality. We value attitude, accountability, and teamwork above ego.

Positive, professional attitude
Coachable and eager to learn
Open to feedback and continuous improvement
Team-first mindset
Zero tolerance for negativity or toxic behavior
Responsibilities
Execute all recipes exactly as written with consistency and attention to detail
Work line shifts as needed and lead by example
Assist, coach, and support line cooks
Help manage COGS, food cost, and waste control
Place food orders and assist with inventory management
Assist with staff scheduling and daily kitchen operations
Maintain kitchen cleanliness, organization, and standards
Collaborate weekly with TV personality and chef consultant Brian Duffy to learn systems, execution, and culinary leadership
Uphold company culture, standards, and values at all times
Qualifications
Culinary degree or formal culinary training preferred
Early-career chefs encouraged to apply
Strong organizational and communication skills
Ability to follow systems, recipes, and direction without shortcuts
Willingness to work nights, weekends, and busy service shifts
Passion for learning both culinary skills and kitchen management
Why This Role Is Different
Hands-on mentorship and real growth opportunity
Direct weekly exposure to an experienced chef consultant
Chance to grow into leadership as the company expands
Opportunity to be part of a company planning multiple concepts across the tri-state area and beyond
This position is ideal for someone who wants to build a real career, not just cook a shift.
