Job Description

We're looking for someone who loves the craft of cooking, thrives in a high-performance environment, and wants to be part of building something meaningful from day one.

This role is for a leader who understands that great restaurants are built through consistency, preparation, teamwork, and an unwavering commitment to the guest experience.

At Quarter French, standards are clear, expectations are high, and learning never stops. Our Executive Chef sets the tone for the kitchen through mentorship, discipline, and a genuine passion for hospitality. We're looking for a Sous Chef who is excited to learn, grow, and help bring that vision to life every day.

What You'll Do

As Sous Chef, you'll help bridge vision and execution.

Responsibilities include:

  • Leading and supporting the line during service

  • Maintaining quality, consistency, and presentation standards

  • Training and developing cooks through coaching and setting the example

  • Ensuring stations are prepared, organized, and service-ready

  • Assisting with ordering, inventory, and cost controls

  • Ensuring sanitation and safety standards are upheld at all times

  • Supporting the kitchen wherever needed from expediting to working the line

The role requires adaptability, attention to detail, and the ability to remain composed when service is at its busiest.

Who You Are

  • A positive leader who leads by example

  • Passionate about food, hospitality, and continuous improvement

  • Organized, detail-oriented, and accountable

  • Committed to maintaining high standards without compromising teamwork

  • Able to learn, teach, mentor, and develop others

  • Motivated by excellence and eager to continue refining your craft

You understand that leadership is not about authority it's about consistency, professionalism, and setting the example others want to follow.

Qualifications

  • 3+ years of progressive culinary leadership experience

  • Experience in chef-driven, fine dining, or upscale casual restaurants

  • Strong culinary fundamentals, knife skills, modern plating and detail-oriented execution

  • Experience with ordering, inventory, scheduling and cost management

  • Ability to perform under pressure while maintaining standards

  • Strong communication and organizational skills

  • A genuine desire to mentor and develop others

What You'll Find Here

  • An Executive Chef committed to mentorship and development

  • A team built intentionally from day one

  • A culture rooted in hospitality, professionalism, and respect

  • High standards paired with genuine support

  • The opportunity to help shape one of Charleston's most exciting new restaurants

We're looking for someone who still gets excited about a busy dining room, takes pride in every plate that leaves the kitchen, and believes there is always more to learn.

If you're ready to grow, contribute, and help build something special from the beginning, we'd love to meet you.
