Chef de Cuisine / Sous Chef - HOUSEpitality Family (Richmond, VA)

HOUSEPITALITY FAMILY LLC

Midlothian, VA • On-site

$54K/yr

Full-time

Medical, Dental, Vision, PTO

Re-posted 11 days ago

Job description

Job Title: Chef de Cuisine / Sous Chef - All Locations
Company: HOUSEpitality Family
Location: Richmond, VA
Job Type: Full-time
Salary: $54,000 - $65,000 per year
About This Posting
This is a standing posting, not a listing for a specific vacancy. HOUSEpitality Family is a growing restaurant group, and we build our culinary leadership bench ahead of need - that means we are always open to speaking with talented, hardworking culinary leaders, even when no specific opening is listed. We promote from within first, but we are always looking to speak with talented, passionate individuals. If you think you'd be a great fit for our team, we'd like to talk with you. Qualified candidates may be considered for current or future opportunities across our eight Richmond-area restaurants, spanning waterfront seafood, Mexican, coastal, and French brasserie concepts.
About Us
HOUSEpitality Family proudly owns and operates eight restaurants in and around Richmond, VA: The Boathouse (Sunday Park, Rocketts Landing, Short Pump, and City Point), Casa del Barco (Canal Walk and Short Pump), Island Shrimp Co., and Can Can Brasserie. We Celebrate Life One Bite At A Time, and we're building a team of passionate, driven people who want to grow in a culture rooted in Integrity, Innovation, Knowledge, and Empowerment.
What You'll Do
As a Chef de Cuisine or Sous Chef, you'll be a hands-on leader in a high-volume kitchen: running the line during service, expediting, training and coaching cooks, managing prep lists and pars, maintaining food safety and cleanliness standards, and supporting the Executive Chef on ordering, inventory, and scheduling. You'll be on the fast track - this is exactly the role our Executive Chefs grew from.
What We're Looking For
  • 2+ years in a kitchen leadership role (Sous Chef, Kitchen Manager, or strong Lead Line Cook ready to step up)
  • The ability to run a busy line calmly and keep quality high under pressure
  • A teacher's instinct - you develop cooks instead of just covering for them
  • Solid fundamentals: knife skills, sauces, butchery, scratch cooking
  • Availability for nights, weekends, and holidays

Compensation & Growth
Chef de Cuisine and Sous Chef salaries start at $54,000, increase to $56,000+ as you complete milestones in our structured career path, and range up to $65,000. Upon graduating your career path (typically within your first few months), you qualify for an annual bonus opportunity starting at $3,000 based on performance metrics, with bonus potential that grows from there. Executive Chef salaries in our group begin where this range ends - the path up is real and defined.
What We Offer
Health/dental/vision benefits, paid time off, dining privileges across all eight restaurants, and a defined growth path toward Executive Chef within a multi-concept group.
How to Apply
Apply with your resume. All inquiries are handled confidentially. Even if the timing isn't perfect today, we'd love to stay connected about future opportunities.
HOUSEpitality Family is an Equal Opportunity Employer. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, disability, or veteran status.
Desired Experience and Attributes:
  • 4+ years experience including working knowledge of all kitchen stations
  • Flexibility in scheduling, working major holidays and seasonal high-volume periods
  • Flexible disposition for changes made by Leadership management to menus and procedures
  • Able to work large events, expedite line, lift 50 pounds and stand for extended periods
  • Honed soft skills for working efficiently, effectively, and respectfully to foster and maintain a positive team culture
  • Motivational management style with ability to work in a team environment and see the bigger picture
  • Strong customer service orientation with a willingness to share knowledge and care about others
  • ServSafe Manager Certified (preferred, not mandatory)
