About Us :

Dartcor is a premier luxury boutique hospitality group, redefining corporate dining through the art of exceptional cuisine, impeccable service, and uncompromising quality. With a reputation built on innovation, craftsmanship, and genuine care, Dartcor creates memorable culinary experiences for a distinguished clientele, including Fortune 100 companies. We are seeking an Executive Chef who embodies the spirit of excellence, creativity, and leadership — someone who understands that every plate tells a story and every moment is an opportunity to inspire.

Position Overview :

The Executive Chef will be the culinary visionary behind one of Dartcor’s flagship operations, bringing both artistry and precision to the kitchen. Reporting to the General Manager, this leader will steward a passionate culinary team, curate seasonal and locally inspired menus, and deliver service and execution at a standard worthy of world-class hospitality. This is a unique opportunity for a chef with fine dining or ultra-luxury hotel experience to shape a program that surprises, delights, and exceeds expectations at every turn.

Key Responsibilities :

  • Lead and oversee all kitchen operations with a focus on excellence, precision, and hospitality-driven service.
  • Curate and execute innovative, ingredient-driven menus that celebrate seasonality, sustainability, and craftsmanship.
  • Set the tone for culinary artistry through flawless execution, creativity, and an obsession with detail.
  • Mentor and inspire the culinary team, cultivating a culture of growth, professionalism, and heartfelt service.
  • Maintain the highest standards of food safety, sanitation, and workplace organization.
  • Manage food purchasing, inventory, and cost controls with a strategic and mindful approach.
  • Collaborate closely with leadership on menu development, event programming, and guest experience initiatives.
  • Engage personally with guests and clients when needed, anticipating needs and delivering bespoke culinary moments.
  • Continually seek opportunities for refinement and innovation, staying ahead of culinary trends while honoring classic techniques.

Requirements

Qualifications :

  • Minimum 5–7 years of progressive culinary leadership experience in luxury hospitality (e.g., Forbes Five-Star hotels, Relais & Châteaux, Michelin-starred restaurants, or similar).
  • Fine dining or high end NYC Restaurant experience is a plus
  • Exceptional leadership skills with a proven ability to develop and retain high-performing teams.
  • Mastery of both classical and modern cooking techniques.
  • Strong business acumen related to food costing, purchasing, and labor management.
  • Excellent communication skills with the ability to collaborate effectively across departments.
  • A genuine passion for hospitality, craftsmanship, and inspiring both team and guest experiences.
  • Culinary degree preferred; equivalent experience considered.
  • Desired Attributes :

  • Uncompromising attention to detail and commitment to excellence.
  • Creative spirit with an appreciation for global flavors, artisanal products, and local sourcing.
  • Calm, poised leadership style even under pressure.
  • A polished, guest-centric demeanor with the ability to personalize experiences at a high level.
  • A hands-on, engaged leadership approach — leading by example in every sense.
  • Benefits
