Executive Sous Chef Jobs in New York

An Executive Sous Chef is the second-in-command in a professional kitchen, directly assisting the Executive Chef in various culinary tasks such as menu development, food preparation, kitchen staff supervision, and ensuring high-quality food production and presentation. They are also responsible for monitoring food safety and sanitation regulations, managing the kitchen budget, and overseeing inventory.

They should also possess excellent communication and time management skills. Familiarity with relevant software for inventory and order management is often required. Certifications vary by country, but typically, this position requires a degree in culinary arts or a related field and may require certifications in food safety and sanitation. Prior to becoming an Executive Sous Chef, an individual might hold positions such as Line Cook, Sous Chef, or Chef de Partie to gain necessary experience and skills.
