Location: South Boston, MA

Footprint: ~6,500 sq ft + patio (brand-new buildout)

Type: Full-time

Compensation: Six-figure salary + strong incentives + vested ownership opportunity

About the Role

This isn’t just a restaurant, it’s a movement. The role is to redefine experiential dining by putting

the craft behind food and drink at the center of the experience. To consistently shine a spotlight

on the craftspeople—dairy farmers, chocolatiers, winemakers, knife makers, ranchers, and

more—who shape our industry and inspire our ambitions.

We’re looking for an Executive Chef who is not only an exceptional culinary leader but also

deeply curious about craft production and hungry for collaboration. You’ll take on the challenge

of designing constantly evolving menus, working closely with artisans, and leading a kitchen that

thrives on creativity, connection, and storytelling.

Who You Are

Mission-Driven: You care about the craft economy and prefer to highlight producers

over chefs.

Curious & Collaborative: You’re captivated by the journey from source to plate,

intrigued by the tools that make it possible, and energized by working with others who

care as deeply as you do.

Adaptable & Creative: You embrace change and thrive on a rotational concept that

brings new challenges every month.

Knowledge-Driven Leader: You lead through education, fostering a culture where

every cook learns to question, explore, and refine. Shared curiosity and understanding

are your foundation.

Excellent Operator: You balance creativity with execution, leading a team that delivers

both artistry and efficiency.

What You’ll Do

Lead a dynamic, evolving kitchen where new producers influence the menu every

month.

Develop special menus in collaboration with featured artisans, understanding their

process and crafting dishes that elevate their work.

Build a kitchen culture of respect, curiosity, and execution—balancing innovation with

seamless service.

Steward sustainability: source responsibly and make thoughtful decisions about

ingredients and operations.

Engage with the craft community through tastings, events, and storytelling opportunities. Compensation & Growth

Six-figure base salary with a strong incentive plan tied to the restaurant’s success.

Opportunity to vest into ownership—this isn’t just a job; it’s a long-term investment in

something bigger.

Profit-sharing incentives based on financial and creative performance.

Industry exposure and collaboration with top artisans across food, beverage, and craft

industries.

What We Offer

The chance to help open a brand-new restaurant and redefine experiential dining.

A mission-driven environment where your creativity and leadership have real impact.

Daily collaboration with an incredible network of artisans and industry professionals.

Compensation that ties you to the business and the long-term success of the mission.
