Chef de Cuisine — The Cheyenne Club at Brush Creek Ranch

$95,000–$100,000 | 10% End-of-Season Guaranteed Bonus 

Who We Are

Brush Creek Ranch is a luxury guest ranch in the Snowy Range mountains of Wyoming — and The Cheyenne Club is where our culinary program reaches its highest expression. We're looking for a Chef de Cuisine who is ready to lead a world-class fine dining kitchen, develop a talented culinary team, and bring a genuine passion for seasonal, locally inspired cuisine to one of the most extraordinary ranch resort settings in the American West.

This role reports to our Executive Chef and offers a compensation package designed to attract the best: $95,000–$100,000 base salary, a 10% end-of-season guaranteed bonus, subsidized on-site housing, and three free meals per day. Relocation assistance available for the right candidate.

The Opportunity

  • Lead The Cheyenne Club — Brush Creek Ranch's signature fine dining restaurant — with full ownership of culinary operations, seasonal menu development, and kitchen team performance
  • Work directly with The Farm at Brush Creek Ranch — our on-site greenhouse, goat dairy, creamery, and artisan bakery — to build a truly authentic farm-to-table culinary program
  • Execute signature culinary events, private ranch dinners, and immersive guest programming in one of Wyoming's most celebrated luxury ranch environments
  • Develop and mentor a dedicated culinary team in a supportive, craft-focused kitchen culture
  • Build a long-term culinary career within the White Lodging luxury ranch and hotel network

Ideal Candidate

  • 5+ years of progressive culinary leadership in luxury restaurants, destination resorts, private clubs, or fine dining environments
  • Experience at a Relais & Châteaux, Forbes-rated, or comparable luxury property strongly preferred
  • Seasonal menu development and farm-to-table sourcing experience — a genuine passion for ingredient-driven cuisine
  • A culinary leader who is as comfortable mentoring a junior cook as executing a private dinner for discerning ranch guests
  • Ready to embrace the Wyoming ranch lifestyle — the land, the seasons, and a quality of life that's genuinely hard to find anywhere else

Compensation & Benefits

  • $95,000–$100,000 base salary
  • 10% end-of-season guaranteed bonus
  • Subsidized on-site housing
  • 3 free meals per day
  • Medical, dental, and vision insurance — starting day 1

  • Access to hiking, mountain biking, and fishing on neighboring national forest land
  • Discounts on hotel rooms, dining, and travel
  • Growth opportunities across our luxury ranch and hotel network
