Job Details
Executive Kitchen Manager – Fine Dining Restaurant – Brooklyn, NY
 
We are a high-end, chef-driven kosher restaurant located in Brooklyn, seeking a strong, hands-on Executive Kitchen Manager to lead our kitchen operations with professionalism, creativity, and precision.
 
This is not a background role — we are looking for someone who lives and breathes the kitchen, who can lead by example, earn respect, and deliver consistent excellence.
 
Key Responsibilities:
 
Full management of kitchen operations – including mastery of all recipes, techniques, and plating standards.
 
Staff leadership and delegation – enforce kitchen rules, train staff, communicate expectations, and maintain accountability.
 
Inventory and ordering – manage vendor relations, control costs, track inventory, and ensure product availability.
 
Recipe control and production accuracy – oversee consistency in portioning, prep, and execution across the board.
 
Staff meetings and development – run structured kitchen meetings, conduct performance reviews, and guide team growth.
 
Creative input – work with ownership and chefs on seasonal ideas, menu evolution, and presentation refinement.
 
 
Requirements:
 
Minimum 3 years of proven experience in a kitchen leadership role (Sous Chef or higher) within a fine dining or high-volume setting.
 
Strong organizational skills and ability to maintain structure in a high-pressure environment.
 
Natural authority — able to lead calmly but firmly, with full command over the team.
 
Solid understanding of cost control, prep timelines, and quality assurance.
 
No prior kosher experience necessary – we are happy to train the right candidate.
 
 
What We Offer:
 
A chance to lead a unique, high-end culinary operation with creative freedom.
 
Professional growth potential and a long-term role for someone who takes ownership.
 
Competitive pay, stable hours, and a passionate, supportive team.
