Job description

Open to relocating to South Florida? A renowned Miami-based hospitality brand is seeking a visionary Executive Chef to lead the culinary relaunch of its flagship restaurant and growing events business. With a decades-long reputation for pushing the boundaries of creativity, quality, and service, this is a rare opportunity to join a legacy in evolution—alongside its original founder—during an exciting new chapter.

About the Brand : This well-established name has long been a trendsetter in the Miami culinary and event scene, known for its theatrical presentation, bold flavors, and over-the-top service experiences. As the brand reimagines its next era, it remains rooted in a deep respect for craft, collaboration, and guest-centered innovation.

The Opportunity : We’re looking for a dynamic Executive Chef who thrives in high-energy environments and brings equal parts creativity and operational discipline. This is more than a kitchen leadership role—it’s a chance to help shape the next wave of a beloved institution and co-author a culinary vision that surprises and delights.

Key Responsibilities :

  • Collaborate closely with ownership and leadership to develop and execute a new culinary identity for both restaurant and events.
  • Lead the design, testing, and rollout of seasonal and signature menus with attention to presentation, uniqueness, and cost control.
  • Hire, mentor, and inspire a high-performance kitchen team; foster a positive, hands-on, and growth-minded culture.
  • Ensure all culinary operations run with excellence—from sourcing and prep to final plating—across dine-in, lounge / bar, private dining, and offsite events.
  • Drive continuous improvement in systems, efficiency, and guest satisfaction.
  • Uphold the highest standards of cleanliness, food safety, and kitchen organization.

About You :

  • Highly creative, but equally grounded in systems, operations, and accountability.
  • Experience with restaurant openings or relaunches, including team building and menu creation from scratch.
  • Background in reputable, high-performing kitchens; experience in Michelin-starred restaurants is a plus, but not required.
  • Exceptional palate, plating instincts, and a flair for dramatic and memorable service concepts.
  • Passionate about hospitality and creating unforgettable guest experiences.
  • Hands-on leadership style : humble, approachable, and committed to team success.
  • Comfortable in high-volume, multi-concept environments (200+ seats, bar / lounge, PDR, events).
  • Familiarity with the Miami market is a plus but not required.
  • What You’ll Get :

  • The opportunity to leave a personal mark on a legendary brand’s next act.
  • Direct access to and collaboration with the brand’s founder.
  • A platform to express your culinary voice and build something extraordinary.
  • Competitive compensation and benefits package.
  • Create a job alert for this search
