Job Description

Chef / Assistant General Manager — Danny & Coop’s

Danny & Coop’s is looking for an experienced, hands-on Chef / Assistant General Manager to help lead our high-volume restaurant operation.

This is not a desk-management position. The right candidate must be able to perform every responsibility of a strong line cook while also handling the leadership, organization, and accountability expected of a General Manager. You should be equally comfortable running the line during a rush, managing employees, maintaining food quality, controlling costs, and overseeing the entire restaurant when the GM is unavailable.

Responsibilities include:

Work every station on the line at a high level

Lead service during high-volume shifts

Train, coach, schedule, and supervise employees

Maintain consistent food quality, portions, and presentation

Oversee prep production and ensure the restaurant is ready for service

Manage opening and closing procedures

Monitor inventory, ordering, receiving, and waste

Maintain food, labor, and operating-cost targets

Enforce food-safety, sanitation, and workplace standards

Resolve customer concerns professionally

Hold employees accountable while maintaining a respectful workplace

Identify operational problems and take immediate action

Assume full responsibility for the restaurant when the General Manager is unavailable

Qualifications:

At least three years of high-volume restaurant experience

Previous kitchen leadership and restaurant-management experience

Strong line-cooking, knife, prep, and food-production skills

Ability to lead calmly and decisively during busy service

Experience with scheduling, inventory, ordering, and cost control

Strong communication and organizational skills

Current NYC Food Protection Certificate

Ability to lift at least 50 pounds and remain on your feet for extended shifts

Open availability, including weekends and holidays

Fluency in English; Spanish is a plus

We are looking for someone who leads from the floor, takes ownership, maintains high standards, and understands that no task is beneath them. This position is ideal for an experienced kitchen leader who is ready to take responsibility for the performance of the entire restaurant.

Please submit your résumé along with a brief description of your kitchen and management experience.
