Original job description

We are looking for an experienced and motivated Kitchen Manager to lead our kitchen team and oversee daily kitchen operations.

This is a leadership role for someone who enjoys being on the floor, coaching and developing their team, maintaining high standards, and ensuring the kitchen runs smoothly during both lunch and dinner service.

Reporting directly to the General Manager, you will take ownership of kitchen organization, staffing, scheduling, inventory, food quality, and operational efficiency. You will work closely with the front-of-house team and our Pastry Chef to ensure a seamless experience from the kitchen to the guest’s table.

Key Responsibilities

Team leadership and development

Lead, train, and motivate the kitchen team, fostering a positive, respectful, and accountable working environment.
Support onboarding, ongoing training, and the development of team members.
Prepare and manage kitchen staff schedules, ensuring appropriate coverage for service and prep.
Delegate responsibilities clearly and maintain high standards of teamwork, communication, and performance.
Support recruitment and help build a reliable, well-organized kitchen team.

Kitchen operations and food quality

Oversee daily kitchen operations, including preparation, service, plating, and closing procedures.
Ensure consistency in food quality, portioning, presentation, and execution.
Maintain high standards of food safety, sanitation, cleanliness, and organization.
Ensure recipes, preparation methods, and kitchen procedures are followed consistently.
Coordinate prep and service requirements to ensure smooth and efficient operations.

Inventory and cost control

Manage inventory, stock rotation, ordering, and receiving.
Monitor food costs, waste, and portion control, and identify opportunities to improve profitability.
Conduct regular inventory counts and report on stock levels and cost-related issues.
Work with the General Manager to monitor labour costs, productivity, and overall kitchen performance.

Communication and collaboration

Report directly to the General Manager on kitchen operations, staffing, inventory, food costs, and any operational challenges.
Work hand in hand with the front-of-house team to coordinate service, communicate effectively, and resolve issues quickly.
Collaborate closely with the Pastry Chef to coordinate preparation, timing, quality standards, and seasonal menu development.
Contribute ideas to improve kitchen systems, workflow, efficiency, and the overall guest experience.

Who We Are Looking For

Previous experience in a Kitchen Manager, Sous Chef, or senior kitchen leadership role.
Strong leadership and organizational skills, with the ability to train, motivate, and support a team.
Solid understanding of inventory management, ordering, food costs, and kitchen operations.
A hands-on approach and the ability to lead by example during busy services.
Excellent communication skills and a collaborative mindset.
A strong commitment to food quality, cleanliness, consistency, and food safety.
The ability to stay organized, make decisions, and remain calm under pressure.
A genuine interest in building a strong team and continuously improving operations.

WHY JOIN ENTRECÔTE

A clear and distinctive concept: Work with a focused menu that allows the kitchen to prioritize quality, consistency, and execution.
Room for creativity: Contribute ideas to seasonal menu additions, and improvements to the way we work.
Real leadership and ownership: Take responsibility for kitchen operations and have a direct impact on team performance and restaurant success.
A collaborative environment: Work closely with the General Manager, front-of-house team, and Pastry Chef as part of one coordinated operation.
A central Gastown location: Be part of Vancouver’s vibrant restaurant scene in one of the city’s most distinctive neighbourhoods.
An opportunity to grow: Help shape the kitchen’s systems, culture, and standards as the restaurant continues to develop.

We are looking for someone who takes pride in their work, enjoys developing people, and understands that a successful kitchen is about much more than great food. It is about building a team, creating reliable systems, and delivering a consistently excellent experience to every guest.

If you are a hands-on leader who enjoys taking ownership and making a real difference in a restaurant, we would love to hear from you.
