What are the responsibilities and job description for the Sous Chef position at Hotel Jerome?
Be the culinary backbone of our kitchen, working closely with the Executive Chef to deliver exceptional dining experiences. With your creative flair and leadership skills, you'll inspire our culinary team, ensuring the highest standards of quality and innovation in every dish we serve.
Hotel Jerome has been the social hub of Aspen since its opening in 1889 at the height of the town’s silver boom, known as the place where all great stories were born and are told. As the only Aspen hotel to survive the silver crash, the long pre-ski-resort winters, and the Depression, we’ve seen cowboys ride through our doors, 10th Mountain Division soldiers gather round over pints after training on the slopes, and Hunter S. Thompson holding court during his run for sheriff. You can’t experience Aspen, without experiencing Jerome.
The targeted compensation range for this full time year round, exempt position is $65,000-85,000/year. The position offers a competitive compensation package presented by Auberge Resorts Collection and is eligible for an annual incentive bonus.
Qualifications
Benefits package may be subject to generally applicable eligibility, waiting period, contribution, and other requirements and conditions.
