Operating under The Wolff Company, which brings over 70 years of real estate expertise, Revel Communities focuses on combining the finest aspects of hospitality and residential living. Their mission centers around promoting well-being, fostering social connections, and nurturing independence within their senior communities. Known for creating warm, welcoming environments, Revel Communities designs every detail of their facilities and services to enhance the quality of life for their residents, making them feel truly valued and supported. The role of the Sous Chef at Revel Communities places dining squarely at the heart of community life. This kitchen leadership position is essential in maintaining the high standards of meal quality, food safety, and presentation that residents and guests expect. Reporting directly to the Food & Beverage Director, the Sous Chef acts as the working lead in the kitchen, orchestrating daily food production while inspiring creativity and innovation. This role requires a hands-on approach to cooking and mentoring kitchen staff, ensuring consistency and excellence across all culinary output. As a Sous Chef, you will not only prepare and plate meals that meet and exceed expectations but also guide the kitchen team through proactive coaching and quality control. Your responsibilities include collaborating in menu development, planning daily specials, and helping design special event menus that contribute to a memorable dining experience. Managing inventory carefully to minimize waste and maintain freshness, as well as championing rigorous food safety and sanitation practices, are vital parts of your day-to-day duties. Working at Revel Communities offers a fast-paced but rewarding environment where every meal represents an opportunity to enrich resident life. Flexibility in scheduling—including evenings, weekends, and holidays—is required to meet dining needs, and physical stamina is necessary for standing, walking, bending, and lifting up to 40 pounds in a bustling kitchen setting. Moreover, Revel Communities supports its team members with a comprehensive benefits package, opportunities for professional growth, and a culture deeply committed to diversity, equity, and inclusion. Choosing a cooking career at Revel Communities means joining a team that values not just culinary skill, but also the heart behind hospitality.
