About the role

Estancia La Jolla Hotel & Spa in San Diego, California, seeks a Chef de Cuisine to support the Executive Chef and lead all culinary operations across the hotel. You will plan, prepare, produce, and present high-quality cuisine while maintaining safety, sanitation, and cost controls. The successful candidate will mentor kitchen teams, manage budgets, monitor guest satisfaction, and collaborate with Food & Beverage leadership to develop innovative menus reflecting regional flavors.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
