Full job description

What we offer:

$55,000- $65,000 annual salary, based on relevant experience
Extended health, dental, and vision benefits, subject to plan eligibility
Employee and Family Assistance Program.
Eligibility for Tacofino's discretionary incentive and maternity/parental leave top-up programs.
A positive workplace culture, opportunities for continued growth, and a team that believes leadership should be both accountable and human

The Opportunity

This is a culinary leadership role with whole-restaurant impact. As the Restaurant Operator's direct right hand, you will spend approximately 80% of your time leading and strengthening back-of-house operations and 20% supporting front-of-house leadership. When the Operator is away, you will step in as the person in charge, keeping the team aligned, service moving, and the guest experience on track.

You are a hands-on kitchen leader who cares equally about great food, strong systems, and people development. You are comfortable stabilizing a busy line, coaching in the moment, managing costs and inventory, and moving confidently to the floor when the restaurant needs you.

You will lead

Culinary operations and execution

Lead day-to-day BOH execution and maintain consistent food quality, recipes, builds, portioning, presentation, and speed of service.
Work alongside the team on prep and line stations during peak periods, short-staffed shifts, and operational transitions.
Maintain effective prep plans, pars, station readiness, opening and closing routines, cleaning schedules, and kitchen organization.
Ensure food-safety, sanitation, allergen, workplace-safety, and company requirements are understood and consistently followed.

People leadership and development

Coach, mentor, and develop BOH team members and supervisors through clear expectations, timely feedback, and hands-on support.
Lead BOH onboarding and training, including prep efficiency, recipe and product execution, equipment use, cleaning, and safe work practices.
Partner with the Operator on staffing, scheduling, performance conversations, recognition, and succession planning.
Help create an inclusive, respectful, accountable, and psychologically safe workplace where people can do their best work.

Business and administrative performance

Manage ordering, receiving, inventory counts, product rotation, waste controls, and invoice processes.
Monitor food cost, labour deployment, productivity, and other operational results; identify trends and take practical action with the Operator.
Support labour-optimized scheduling and payroll administration while balancing business needs, team wellbeing, and applicable requirements.
Maintain accurate records and follow company systems, policies, standard operating procedures, and reporting expectations.

Restaurant leadership and continuity

Act as the designated person in charge when the Operator is off-site, overseeing both BOH and FOH operations and making sound, timely decisions.
Support the FOH team during service, maintain awareness of the guest experience, and address concerns with care and good judgment.
Lead shift communication, deployment, breaks, operational handoffs, and incident escalation across the restaurant.
Build strong working relationships across BOH and FOH and help create one connected team.

Equipment and facility readiness

Maintain awareness of kitchen equipment and facility conditions, complete routine checks, and address issues before they disrupt service or create safety concerns.
Troubleshoot using approved procedures and promptly escalate repairs through approved internal contacts, technicians, or contractors.
Support preventative maintenance, responsible equipment use, and follow-up to minimize downtime and unnecessary wear.
Other duties as needed.

What you bring

At least 2 years of culinary leadership experience in a fast-paced, high-volume professional kitchen; restaurant management experience is an asset.
Strong working knowledge of kitchen systems, food safety, inventory, ordering, food cost, labour planning, and team training.
The confidence and judgment to lead the full restaurant when the Operator is away.
Experience supporting front-of-house operations and guest recovery is a strong asset.
A collaborative, calm, and hands-on leadership style, with clear communication and strong follow-through.
Current FOODSAFE Level 1 and Serving It Right certification, or willingness to obtain them
Availability to work a flexible schedule, including evenings, weekends, and holidays, based on business needs.

Creative quality food - We create original, quality offerings with unique flavours
Community - We partner with our communities to support impactful, positive change
Inspired hospitality - We want to provide memorable experiences that cannot be found anywhere else
Our Team - We achieve our goals by embracing people for their individuality and supporting their personal and professional growth
Environment - We strive to make positive, sustainable decisions whenever possible

At Tacofino, we believe our people are what makes us great. If you are a positive person with a strong work ethic that is looking to come to join a fun and safe workplace culture, then we invite you to apply for this role by submitting a resume.
