Job Description

The company is a well-established business that specializes in sushi bar operations, emphasizing quality, customer service, and food safety. This company operates with a strong philosophy focused on maintaining high standards in product quality and presentation while fostering a positive work culture. They are looking for a dynamic, energetic sushi chef coordinator who is passionate about culinary excellence and committed to upholding the company’s values and standards. This role serves not just as a chef but as a mentor and a leader who can effectively train and support sushi chefs in multiple store locations. The position involves direct interaction with store teams and requires a proactive approach to ensure that each sushi bar aligns with the brand’s expectations and operational protocols. Travel is a significant component of this role, as the coordinator will assist in store openings, closings, and operational inspections to maintain consistency throughout various units.

The sushi chef coordinator position is full-time and reports directly to the Operations Manager, requiring excellent communication and leadership skills. The role’s core responsibility is to train, develop, and supervise sushi chefs, ensuring that all food safety and sanitation guidelines are enforced strictly. This includes maintaining compliance with local health codes and sanitation laws while ensuring that all sushi products are prepared according to company recipes and displayed appealingly to enhance customer experience and drive sales. An important aspect of the role is assisting with recruitment, bringing in skilled chefs who can contribute positively to the company’s growth and uphold its service standards. The coordinator must also work collaboratively with retail and food service partners to nurture strong professional relationships and maintain the company’s position as a preferred supplier in the market.

Flexibility and adaptability are essential due to the travel requirements, spanning approximately 75 to 90 percent of the time. This makes the position ideal for candidates based in Central Florida (Orlando), who can easily manage statewide travel demands. Overall, this opportunity is perfect for a sushi chef with prior experience in food and customer service who is seeking a challenging but rewarding role that involves leadership, training, and travel. The company is committed to maintaining a culture of excellence and teamwork, and the sushi chef coordinator will play an integral part in advancing these goals across all operational locations.
