Escape the everyday. Join Scratch Restaurants as our Head Sushi Chef in Encino, and make the space your own. Every Scratch restaurant is independent and unique, tied together by one thing: an artisanal, from-scratch approach to hospitality. We hold ourselves to an incredibly high standard, and we get there together, with respect, communication, and a drive to keep getting better. That includes the person at the top.
Our culture:
  • We chase excellence. Innovation, commitment, and uncompromising quality.
  • We lead by example. The team keeps getting better, and that includes you.
  • We respect each other. Kitchen, managers, directors, and ownership work as one team.
  • We always improve. Bring your ideas to every team meeting.
  • We're going places. Recognized locally and nationally, and soon internationally.
  • Your restaurant, your ownership
  • We're open seven days a week, and you won't work every service. But this is your restaurant either way. Build a team and systems strong enough that the standard holds on your days off, and take responsibility for the space whether you're there or not.
Who you are:
  • You've run a high-end restaurant, and you're comfortable front and center with guests. You lead with little hand-holding, think fast, and care about delivering an exceptional experience every night.
  • What your days look like
  • Run the show. Lead the team and work service on your scheduled days, on the line and not in the office.
  • Own the space. Set the standards and train the team so every shift runs the way you would run it.
  • Host the night. Welcome guests at the start and send them off at the end.
  • Build the team. Partner with the GM on training, retention, and a culture people want to stay in.
  • Guard the quality. Own receiving, inventory, and purchasing with your GM or AGM.Know your numbers. Review the monthly P&L, hit yearly budget goals, and take 100% responsibility for quality and success alongside upper management.
  • Keep it running. Schedules, reports, paperwork, and performance appraisals, all on time.
  • Pitch in. Support the team wherever needed.
  • What we're hoping you've got
  • Leadership chops. Supervisory experience (required), plus time as a Sous Sushi Chef or in a comparable leadership role.
  • The reps. 5+ years in a professional, hospitality-driven restaurant.
  • An owner's mindset. You take responsibility for results, even when you're not on the line.
  • Safety certifications. Safety, sanitation, and food handling, including a Food Protection certificate from your local health department.
  • Well-rounded skills. Strong English, communication, math, and computer skills.
  • Stamina. Ready for 12-hour days on your feet and lifting up to 50 lbs.
  • Polish. A neat, clean, professional appearance.
  • A cool head. You solve problems in real time, mid-service.
  • Independence. You lead a team with little to no guidance.
What's in it for you: This position is full time with weekly overtime available!!!Ownership of the space. Your restaurant, your standards, your team. Full coverage. Health, dental, and vision insurance. Paid time off. Time to recharge. A 401(k). Plan for the long run. Dining discounts across Scratch Restaurants. Real growth.
