Ready to Run Your Own Kitchen?

Are you a talented Sous Chef or Executive Sous Chef ready to take the next step in your culinary career?

An established restaurant group in Casper, Wyoming, is seeking a passionate, driven Chef de Cuisine to lead the kitchen of our casual fine dining steakhouse.

We’re looking for a chef who is ready for more than just executing someone else’s vision. This is an opportunity to take ownership of a kitchen, develop your own team, contribute to menu development, and make a meaningful impact on a successful restaurant.

Working directly with our Corporate Executive Chef, you’ll have the support of experienced culinary leadership while enjoying the responsibility and autonomy of running day-to-day operations.

Our approach to food is straightforward: premium ingredients, scratch preparation, strong culinary fundamentals, and exceptional execution without unnecessary pretension.

What You’ll Bring
  • Experience as a Sous Chef, Executive Sous Chef, or Chef de Cuisine in a quality, high-volume restaurant.
  • Strong culinary fundamentals with experience in premium beef, seafood, butchery, and classical techniques.
  • A passion for scratch cooking and consistently executed food.
  • The ability to lead, train, and motivate a culinary team.
  • Understanding of food costs, labor management, inventory, and purchasing.
  • Strong organizational skills and attention to detail.
  • A hands‑on leadership style and a commitment to accountability.
  • The drive to grow professionally and take ownership of your kitchen.
What You’ll Be Responsible For
  • Leading daily kitchen operations and service.
  • Developing and mentoring your culinary team.
  • Maintaining exceptional food quality and consistency.
  • Managing food costs, labor, purchasing, and inventory.
  • Collaborating on menu development, seasonal features, and new ideas.
  • Building a positive, professional, and efficient kitchen culture.
What We Offer
  • $70,000 annual salary
  • The opportunity to lead your own kitchen.
  • Direct support from an experienced Corporate Executive Chef.
  • Creative input and influence over culinary direction.
  • Career growth within an established restaurant group.
  • A professional environment focused on quality, consistency, and teamwork.
  • An opportunity to build your career in the Mountain West.
Trade the Big City Grind for a Bigger Opportunity

For chefs working in Denver, Boulder, Fort Collins, Colorado Springs, or Colorado’s mountain resort communities, Casper offers the opportunity to advance your career without the cost and congestion of a larger market.

Enjoy access to world‑class fishing, hiking, skiing, and outdoor recreation while making your mark as a culinary leader.

You don’t have to move to a bigger city to take a bigger step in your career.

Let’s Talk

If you’re an ambitious Sous Chef ready to become a Chef de Cuisine, or an experienced culinary leader looking for a fresh opportunity, we’d like to hear from you.

Submit your resume and a brief introduction about your experience and what you’re looking for in your next culinary opportunity.
