We are looking for a passionate and experienced Sous Chef to join the team in an open kitchen, located in the historical Main House, on our client’s Wellness Farm. The property includes 11 suites, each a private retreat. The menus focus on produce from the garden where the chefs harvest daily to make a nourishing meal centered around seasonal vegetables, with protein as a side. The food is fresh, healthy, abundant, and flavorful, bringing together the colors of each season.
 
Our client envision all chefs working in collaboration with visiting chefs from across the world. You should have a minimum of 3 years' experience in a luxury hospitality environment and be comfortable with interacting with guests. Possibly welcoming them into the kitchen to share some of the cooking experience at the farm; spontaneously, as if it were your home. You should hold a calm presence under pressure. And have an ability to communicate well with both kitchen, and front of house team members.
 
You would assist the Head Chef in creating and implementing daily menus that suit our client’s philosophy, utilize what is in the garden and suit the guests’ dietaries. Therefore, having a strong knowledge and love for plant-based cooking is important, passion and knowledge of medicinal herbs and vegetables is a plus. You should have the ability to train the team.
 
The ideal candidate is a conscious being, with a heart for sustainability and regenerative practices, with a knowledge and love of all things wellness.
