Scratch Culinary Jobs in Arizona (NOW HIRING)

Grass Clippings Rolling Hills, located in Tempe, AZ, is pleased to announce an excellent career opportunity for a Full-Time Executive Chef! We are seeking a driven individual who is eager to learn, contribute, and grow within a fast-paced hospitality-focused property organization. As part of Troon, you will contribute to a global leader in golf and community management.

Arizona's most exciting culinary concept is looking for its next creative force.

We are not a traditional golf course restaurant. Glenrosa is a vibrant Sonoran live-fire restaurant and social destination built around scratch-made cuisine, bold flavors, community, and the energy of modern Arizona hospitality. Since opening in April 2025, we have generated more than $4 million in sales—and we are just getting started.

We need a Head Chef who brings the same fire as the kitchen. Someone who leads from the line, builds a culture people want to work in, and understands that every plate is a brand moment.

The Head Chef will oversee all culinary operations at Glenrosa—from daily kitchen execution to menu development, event programming, food cost management, and team leadership. This role carries ultimate responsibility for the quality, consistency, and culture of everything that comes out of the kitchen. Running the full operation

This role owns the full culinary operation—menu development, seasonal features, food cost controls, ordering, scheduling, training, and compliance. You will work directly alongside F&B leadership and collaborate with Events, Golf, and the broader Grass Clippings team to support activations, tournaments, nightlife, and private events.

Experience with Sonoran or Southwestinspired cuisine is a plus—but a love of bold, creative food is non-negotiable. Kitchen EXCELLENCE MATTERS
