Job description

Head Production Chef (Finger Sandwich Operations)

Location : New York, NY (West Chelsea)

Compensation : $30++ per hour (DOE) + growth opportunity

Schedule : Part-time to start, opportunity to grow into full-time (Mornings Monday to Friday)

About the Role

We are newly formed high-end B2B catering business specializing in french finger sandwiches crafted for discerning corporate clients, premium events, and hospitality partners.

We’re seeking a Head Production Chef who blends precision, pride, and craftsmanship -  someone who understands that excellence lies in the millimeters. You’ll lead the daily production of refined, visually perfect finger sandwiches from an established playbook, ensuring every cut, layer, and wrap reflects our uncompromising standards.

This is a hands-on leadership and execution role. You’ll oversee every stage of production, - from bread cutting and portioning to final assembly. As the business grows, you’ll help shape the systems, standards, and team that scale our product while maintaining quality.

Key Responsibilities

  • Execute and oversee daily finger sandwich production following detailed recipes and SOPs.
  • Maintain precision in cutting, portioning, and assembly - consistency is paramount.
  • Uphold consistent taste and quality, along with visual perfection across all sandwiches.
  • Manage prep flow, timing, and coordination with dispatch for on-time B2B and event orders.
  • Track inventory, report shortages, and ensure ingredients are always fresh and ready.
  • Maintain impeccable cleanliness and NYC DOH compliance standards.
  • Take full ownership of product quality, consistency, and presentation every day.

Qualifications

  • 5–8 years professional kitchen experience - ideally in catering, patisserie, canapé, or precision-style production (where taste, uniformity and presentation are key).
  • Experience dealing with high end clients.
  • Exceptional knife and portioning skills - comfort working to millimeter-level consistency.
  • Demonstrated ability to execute and manage daily prep flow with minimal supervision.
  • Deep understanding of food safety, cold-chain handling, and NYC DOH protocols.
  • Calm, methodical, and organized - thrives in structured, clean environments.
  • Passionate about taste, precision, and creating visually beautiful food.
  • Growth-oriented mindset : eager to evolve into a senior leadership role as the business expands (multi year opportunity for serious growth)
  • What We Offer

  • Competitive pay : $30++ per hour, depending on experience.
  • Predictable weekday hours (no nights, stable mornings).
  • Supportive, refined, and professional kitchen culture.
  • Direct collaboration with ownership - high trust, high responsibility.
  • Clear path for growth as we scale our high end catering business with existing partnerships.
  • Ideal Candidate

    You take pride in perfection. You want to be the best in what you do. You understand that excellence is measured not just in flavor (#1 KPI), but also in symmetry, proportion, and presentation. You thrive on process, precision, and reliability - crafting refined finger sandwiches that look and taste flawless, every single time.

    If you’re a detail-driven chef who loves craftsmanship and consistency - and want to be part of a growing premium brand - this is your opportunity.
