Chef de Cuisine

Ember & Ash is a live-fire kitchen on East Passyunk Avenue, known for creative, ingredient-driven cooking rooted in technique and global inspiration. We’re looking for a Chef de Cuisine to lead our kitchen. Someone who’s both visionary and hands-on, capable of running a tight, passionate team while helping push our food forward.

What we’re looking for:

• Minimum 4 years of professional kitchen experience, including leadership in a scratch, high-caliber restaurant
• Strong understanding of live-fire cooking and whole-animal butchery (or the curiosity to master it)
• Proven ability to manage systems, ordering, and scheduling while maintaining quality and consistency
• A genuine respect for teamwork, mentorship, and hospitality — both in and out of the kitchen

What you’ll do:

• Oversee day-to-day kitchen operations and lead BOH team
• Collaborate on menu development, seasonal changes, and creative events
• Uphold the integrity of our food, culture, and service standards
• Work closely with FOH leadership to ensure a seamless guest experience

We offer competitive pay, creative input in menu direction, and a collaborative environment that values growth and balance. If this sounds like your kind of kitchen, please submit your resume or email us at [email protected]
