This is a hands-on leadership role for someone who enjoys the pace of a busy kitchen, takes pride in great food, and wants to be involved in more than daily service.

You'll help lead the kitchen during shifts, support expo, keep standards consistent, and work with the team to keep service running smoothly. You'll also be involved in the planning and creative side of the kitchen, including ordering, inventory, prep planning, scheduling support, specials, menu testing, and new food ideas.

Pack's Tavern is family-owned, not corporate-run. We're looking for someone who wants to lead, contribute, and help run a kitchen that is organized, consistent, and enjoyable to be part of.
What You'll Do
  • Help lead daily kitchen operations in a high-volume restaurant
  • Run expo and support the line during service
  • Maintain quality, presentation, timing, cleanliness, and food safety standards
  • Assist with ordering, inventory, prep planning, and kitchen organization
  • Help with scheduling and team communication
  • Contribute ideas for specials, menu updates, and new food items
  • Coach and support kitchen staff while holding standards high
  • Communicate clearly with the Executive Chef, FOH managers, and ownership
What We're Looking For
  • Previous sous chef, kitchen lead, or kitchen management experience
  • Experience in a fast-paced kitchen
  • Strong communication and problem-solving skills
  • Professional, respectful leadership style
  • Good organization and follow-through
  • Interest in food, specials, and menu development
  • Availability to work nights, weekends, and holidays as needed
What We Offer
  • Full-time management role
  • Competitive salary based on experience
  • Medical, dental, and vision insurance
  • Paid vacation:
    • 2 weeks after 1 year
    • 3 weeks after 3 years
    • 4 weeks after 5 years
  • Shift meals
  • Family-owned work environment
  • Scheduled time for ordering, inventory, prep planning, and specials development
  • Creative input on specials and menu ideas
  • Opportunity to grow within the company

Pack's Tavern and The Century Room are family-owned and operated in the heart of downtown Asheville. We're looking for a strong kitchen leader who wants to take pride in the food, the team, and the way the kitchen runs.
