Immediate opening. Interviewing this week. Se habla español. Descripción completa en español abajo.
We're a chef-owned restaurant group looking for a hands-on kitchen leader to run operations at our two locations: a breakfast, brunch, and bakery operation in North Wilmington and a BBQ and catering kitchen in Mullica Hill. This is not a clipboard job and it's not a micromanaged one. You'll run a largely autonomous kitchen with real input into the menu and the direction of both restaurants.
If you've been waiting for a role where your ideas actually get used, this is it.
This is a daytime job. No late nights. We're built around breakfast, lunch, brunch, and catering, and we want someone who wants a real life outside the kitchen.
What You'll Do:- Lead kitchen operations across both locations (about a 35 to 40 minute drive apart)
- Run your kitchen with real autonomy: your systems, your standards, your team
- Contribute directly to menu development, specials, and the overall direction of the restaurants
- Hire, train, and develop bakery, prep, and line teams
- Maintain quality, consistency, and presentation standards
- Own ordering, inventory, food cost, and vendor relationships
- Uphold food safety and sanitation protocols
- Solve problems quickly and keep service running smoothly
- Kitchen leadership experience as a Sous Chef, Kitchen Manager, or similar. We care more about how you run a line and lead people than about years on a resume
- Brunch or breakfast experience is a bonus
- Smoker or pit experience is a bonus
- Bilingual English/Spanish is a big plus
- A leader who sets the tone, leads by example, and builds a team people want to work on
- Strong organization, multitasking, and problem-solving skills
- Self-motivated and reliable. You don't need someone looking over your shoulder
- Reliable transportation and willingness to travel between both stores regularly
$60,000 to $70,000 salary, based on experience. Full-time, salaried, with real growth potential for someone who cares about great food, great people, and building something.
