Sous Chef

I joined as a server on the catering staff. Thanks to Hyatt's training and support, I now oversee a brilliant team that helps brings events to life.

Hyatt Regency Frisco is conveniently located 25 minutes north of the Dallas with 303 guestrooms and 27,500 square feet of event space. The 18-story hotel is situated in the heart of Frisco, TX at the Stonebriar Centre. Just steps from Dr. Pepper Stadium, FC Dallas / Toyota Stadium, Frisco Discovery Center, many entertainment choices and dining options.

The goal of the Sous Chef is to manage a specific department and work with the Executive Chef to create, implement and maintain quality standards. In some instances the Sous Chef will be expected to be responsible for the entire operation in the absence of the Executive Chef. The ideal Sous Chef will accomplish their tasks by monitoring the daily functions of the culinary department, including providing support and guidance to the culinary team, ending in a positive guest experience.
