We are looking for an experienced kitchen manager or a chef with strong operational ability to take on a hands-on Kitchen Lead role within a new premium residential food service environment in Singapore.
This is a hands-on cooking and management role within an open, customer-facing kitchen. The successful candidate must be confident preparing and overseeing food day to day, while also interacting professionally with clients, maintaining a calm and polished presence, and helping manage kitchen operations, standards, ordering, and team coordination.

- actively preparing, cooking, and supporting service each day
- engaging confidently and professionally in an open customer-facing kitchen environment
- maintaining high standards of food quality, hygiene, cleanliness, and organisation
- managing ordering, stock control, and supplier coordination
- helping put in place systems, structure, and day-to-day operating procedures
- supporting, guiding, and developing junior team members as the team grows
- working closely with management during the setup and opening phase
- remaining flexible and adaptable as the operation develops and new roles are introduced
We are looking for someone who is:
- hands-on and confident in a cooking role
- comfortable speaking with clients and working in a customer-facing environment
- organised, reliable, and able to lead by example
- calm under pressure and confident in a structured, high-standard environment
- experienced in some form of international cuisine
- passionate about health-focused food and quality ingredients
- flexible and comfortable working within a new setup with a small team that will grow over time
What is offered:
- five days a week
- straight shifts only, with no split shifts
- annual performance bonus
- medical benefits in accordance with company policy
- other company benefits
- opportunity to work in a brand new facility
- chance to join an exciting new project at an early stage
- opportunity to help build systems, standards, and team culture from the ground up
