We are looking for an executive Chef to head up a brand new concept from In Tune Hospitality, set to open Spring 2026.
Please note: This is not an immediately available position. We are looking to find the right fit as we build out a new kitchen and develop the new concept. This position will most likely be for a +/- late winter full time hiring, with consulting work paid as an hourly contractor over the months leading up to that. This will be best suited to someone currently employed and in a comfortable position, who is looking for the right fit, a new home, and a project they can be passionate about in the near future.
The new concept will be predominantly Japanese , with some contemporary fusion elements, and have a sushi / sashimi / nigiri & house rolls as well as an array of hot & cold offerings. There will not be omakase. The restaurant will be "casual elegant", the right mix of high/low... It will not be a overly fancy and not overly casual, but in a sweet spot in between.
MUST HAVE EXTENSIVE EXPERIENCE WITH SUSHI & JAPANESE CUISINE.
MUST HAVE EXPERIENCE WITH RESTAURANT OPENINGS.
We are looking for an Exec Chef that is excited to demonstrate their talent and leadership skills, build and nurture a team, work with ownership to develop and tailor the opening menu, operate and manage your kitchen, and lead with confidence and creativity. You will be expected to maintain accurate budgets, manage ordering, cost reporting, quality control, and execute and maintain DOH and DOL standards as part of your responsibilities. You will also have a big role in designing & developing the menu and MUST be open minded about the direction of the menu. There will be lots of tastings.
Anyone without Japanese culinary experience need not apply.
MUST HAVE recent high demand kitchen experience , proficiency in managing, organizing, and ordering for a kitchen, as well as the strength of character to run a tight kitchen and lead a team by example.
Must be willing to "roll up the sleeves and get involved" as opposed to only delegating. This position requires the head chef to be on the line. We run several very popular neighborhood spots and will be catering to the same customer, so expect bustling rooms and energetic pacing. This is not a "tweezer chef" position nor a clip-board chef position. This is NOT a position where someone will be spending most of their time in an office and over delegating - hands on and working on the line is a must. We are looking for someone creative, passionate, and proud to run a tight team that can grow and flourish around them, improving and maintaining standards. In Tune Hospitality operates kind, empowering, and supportive hospitality environments only - bullies, elitism, arrogance, or kitchen snobbery will not be supported or tolerated.

Setting up a new kitchen and back of house for opening
Building & training your team
Tastings with ownership & management
