Job Description
Caesars Entertainment is a globally recognized leader in the hospitality and gaming industry, known for delivering extraordinary experiences and memorable entertainment. As a company committed to excellence, Caesars operates iconic resorts and casinos, including the renowned Flamingo Las Vegas, a staple of the Las Vegas Strip since 1946. With over 3,500 rooms and suites, a 77,000 square foot casino, and a 15-acre tropical backyard retreat, the Flamingo provides a vibrant and inclusive environment where employees can thrive by delivering exceptional customer experiences and engaging entertainment.
The Chef Tournant position at Gordon Ramsay Burger located at Flamingo LV represents an exciting opportunity to join a dynamic culinary team within this prestigious resort environment. As Chef Tournant, you will support the Executive Chef and Chef de Cuisine in managing the daily operations of the kitchen, ensuring the outlet runs smoothly and products consistently meet high-quality standards. This role requires a hands-on leader who can oversee multiple aspects of the back of house (BOH) operations, including staff management, quality control, compliance with health and safety regulations, and maintaining cleanliness. You will step in as acting Chef de Cuisine when needed and play a critical role in upholding the brand's culinary standards and delivering a superior guest dining experience.
In this position, you will be responsible for managing kitchen staff assignments, ordering and receiving product, preparing prep lists, and supervising the quality of food preparation from start to finish. The role demands a thorough understanding of kitchen equipment operations and safety protocols to ensure a safe and efficient working environment. You will also be tasked with fostering a positive work culture by supporting team development, enforcing policies fairly, and collaborating closely with the General Manager and front-of-house staff to ensure seamless service.
Ideal candidates will bring a minimum of five years of culinary experience, with at least one year in a supervisory or similar leadership role, preferably within 5-star luxury hotels or high-end restaurants. Culinary creativity, excellent communication skills, and a passion for streamlining operations to increase productivity will be crucial to your success. Certification in food safety such as ServSafe and compliance with local health standards are mandatory. The ability to work under pressure in a fast-paced, high-volume environment and willingness to undertake additional responsibilities are also important.
Joining Caesars Entertainment means becoming part of a team that values collaboration, respect, and delivering family-style service that creates a genuine connection with guests and colleagues alike. The company is dedicated to corporate responsibility through economic development, employee wellbeing, and community engagement. If you are committed to culinary excellence and eager to contribute to a renowned hospitality brand, the Chef Tournant role at Gordon Ramsay Burger Flamingo LV offers a fulfilling career path with growth opportunities and the chance to make a real impact.
