EXECUTIVE CHEF | HILTON HEAD ISLAND
$75,000–$80,000 Base Salary + Bonus
We’re working with a popular, well-established restaurant on Hilton Head Island that is looking for an experienced Executive Chef to lead the culinary operation.
This is a busy breakfast, lunch, and dinner restaurant with a strong local following. One of the biggest perks of the position is the schedule — the restaurant closes at 9 PM, so there are no late nights.
This is a hands-on leadership role for a chef who enjoys being in the kitchen, developing a strong team, maintaining consistency, and keeping quality high in a busy restaurant environment.
What You’ll Be Doing:
• Lead and develop the culinary team
• Oversee daily kitchen operations and service
• Maintain food quality, presentation, and consistency
• Manage food and labor costs
• Create and maintain recipes, prep standards, and kitchen systems
• Work closely with the restaurant leadership team
• Help develop menus and seasonal specials
• Maintain a clean, organized, and safe kitchen
What We’re Looking For:
• 3+ years of Executive Chef or Chef de Cuisine experience
• Strong leadership and communication skills
• Experience in a high-volume, full-service restaurant
• Solid understanding of food cost, labor, and kitchen operations
• A hands-on leader who leads by example
• Someone who takes pride in developing their team and maintaining high standards
Compensation & Perks:
• $75,000–$80,000 base salary
• Bonus opportunity
• No late nights — restaurant closes at 9 PM
• Popular breakfast, lunch, and dinner operation
• Established restaurant with a strong local following
• Opportunity to lead and make an impact on the culinary program
If you’re an experienced chef looking for a strong leadership opportunity on Hilton Head Island without the late-night restaurant schedule, we’d love to hear from you.
