- Background in Japanese cuisine required
- Fine dining experience is a must
- Bilingual in Spanish is a BIG plus
- Proven leadership of large BOH teams and complex operations
- Strong understanding of labor, food cost, systems, and execution – very financial savvy!
- Hands-on, operational leadership style
