Staff Supervision: Direct Chef Assistants and prep staff, ensuring all prep lists are completed efficiently and workstations are fully stocked.
Operations: Step in to lead the kitchen in the Head Chef's absence. Assist with inventory counts, receiving orders, and maintaining immaculate kitchen cleanliness.
