Job description

At Rocket Farm Restaurants, the core philosophy that defines our culture is, "We serve the person who is serving the guest." Our culture isn't something we act out only on the restaurant floor-it begins with how we treat one another in the kitchen, with dignity, respect, and care. We believe there should be no difference between how we serve our teammates and how we serve our guests. If that philosophy resonates with you, we'd love to meet you.
Little Rey, inspired by Northern Mexican cuisine, is Superica's younger sister, featuring wood-roasted chicken al carbon as its signature dish in a vibrant, ultra-casual setting.
Little Rey is seeking experienced Executive Chefs and Executive Sous Chefs to join our culinary teams in Atlanta, Houston, Nashville, and Raleigh. Relocation is required for candidates who do not currently reside in one of these markets.
Whether you're an accomplished Executive Chef or an experienced Executive Sous Chef ready to take the next step, we're looking for passionate culinary leaders who thrive in fast-paced kitchens, develop exceptional teams, and are committed to operational excellence.
Our culinary leaders oversee the day-to-day operations of the kitchen, including production, prep, purchasing, receiving, catering and special events, scheduling, labor management, food quality, and recipe execution. They lead by example, coach and develop future culinary talent, maintain the highest standards of food quality and consistency, and create an educational, collaborative kitchen culture that delivers exceptional guest experiences every day.
Qualifications:
  • Executive Chef: 10+ years of progressive culinary experience, including at least 5 years in senior culinary leadership preferred.
  • Executive Sous Chef: 5+ years of progressive culinary experience, including at least 2 years in a Sous Chef leadership role preferred.

Competitive Compensation:
  • Executive Chef: $85,000-$120,000/year DOE + generous quarterly bonus program
  • Executive Sous Chef: $70,000-$85,000/year DOE + generous quarterly bonus program

Full Benefits Eligibility After 30 Days:
  • Major Medical, Dental, Vision & Life Insurance

As a valued member of our team, you'll also enjoy:
  • A supportive culture and ethical work environment
  • Performance-based raises and promotions
  • Paid Time Off, Childbirth Recovery Leave, and Parental Leave
  • Significant long-term retention bonuses
  • Time off on most major holidays, including Thanksgiving, Christmas Eve, and Christmas Day
  • 50% dining discount at all Rocket Farm Restaurants in Atlanta, Charlotte, Nashville, Houston, Raleigh, and Winter Park
  • Rocket Farm University leadership development and career growth opportunities
  • Employee-led Mentorship Program, Advisory Council, and Safety Committee

If you're ready to lead a high-performing culinary team and grow your career with one of the country's most respected restaurant groups, apply today and become part of a dynamic, innovative, and hospitality-driven team dedicated to serving one another as passionately as we serve our guests.
