EXECUTIVE SOUS CHEF

PIRATE COVE RESORT, the largest and busiest waterfront dining resort on the Colorado River between Laughlin and Lake Havasu, is seeking an Executive Sous Chef for its fast paced and high-volume restaurant/bar.  This professional and experienced Sous Chef will create 5-Star Food Presentations with unique and artistic designs.  For candidates who enjoy a “private life”, note that our dinner house facility’s latest closing time is 10:00 PM.

We are looking for a detail oriented and positive team player with exceptional guest service skills.  You must have a passion for delivering an unprecedented guest experience through hospitality and the highest standards of food quality.  The environment is upbeat, fun and our customers appreciate life on the river and/or off-roading on the adjacent 3,200 miles of BLM trails.
