Chef de Cuisine

The Stirling Hotel
New Jersey

The Stirling Hotel, despite its name, is not an actual hotel. It is a high volume restaurant that has been around for over 40 years serving comfort food, classic dishes, and seasonal chef-inspired creations. We also have a separate barbecue menu and concept in our backyard area that we call "The Smokehouse". We are looking for a new chef de cuisine to join our team.

The ideal candidate will:

  • Hold the standard set by the chef and owners
  • Be able to delegate to the prep cooks, line cooks, and dishwashers appropriately
  • Have a passion towards food and cooking
  • Have a desire to learn and teach others
  • Work clean and organized
  • Stay calm and relaxed under the daily pressures of the kitchen
  • Leave their ego at the door and work as a team player
  • Treat everyone with respect and kindness

Responsibilities will include, but are not limited too:

  • Accurately placing orders when necessary
  • Preparing items for the menu, specials, parties, and events
  • Keeping a fresh rotation of specials that fit our style
  • Ensure that all items are prepped in time for service
  • Menu planning and food waste management
  • Hiring, scheduling, and training kitchen staff members while maintaining a sustainable labor cost
  • Being able to work all stations and jumping in when and where needed
  • Maintaining the cleanliness of the kitchens and walk-in refrigerators

Previous kitchen management experience is required, preferably at a high volume and/or American comfort food restaurant. Speaking Spanish is a plus, but not required.

On top of the negotiated salary, there are also quarterly performance based bonuses.
