Executive Chef
Chelsea Hospitality Group is seeking a dedicated Executive Chef. Chelsea Hospitality Group develops and operates restaurants, cafés, and hospitality-driven destinations that serve as anchors for community.

Across every concept, Chelsea Hospitality Group is guided by a commitment to elevated, human hospitality. Through thoughtful food, intentional design, and genuine care, we create places where people feel welcomed, connected, and part of something larger than themselves.
Chelsea Hospitality Group is proud to be part of the Dartcor Enterprises family of brands — a hospitality organization grounded in the belief that the power of hospitality inspires human connection and unleashes the limitless potential of our communities.
