Chef de Cuisine – Greenview Taphouse

Whether you're fresh off the trails, wrapping up a round of golf, or just looking for a laid-back local hangout, Greenview Taphouse is your spot. With 20+ rotating BC craft taps, hand-crafted pizzas, and a passion for local ingredients, we serve up elevated pub fare in a cozy, vintage sports-themed setting.

We’re looking for a Chef de Cuisine who’s all about delivering high-quality, consistent execution in a seasonally high-volume kitchen. This isn’t a role for reinventing the wheel — it’s about leading a well-run kitchen that delivers every time. Banquet and event experience is key, as we proudly serve our Fairwinds Golf Club members and host numerous tournaments and private functions throughout the year.

About Us

At Greenview Taphouse, we’re casual but take quality seriously. We’re the perfect mix of clubhouse comfort and vintage sports pub — with hearty food, cold beer, and friendly service at the core of what we do. Part of a growing restaurant group, we’re focused on creating spaces where community and consistency come first.

The Role

As Chef de Cuisine, you’re the captain of the kitchen — running the back of house day to day and making sure every dish is prepared to spec. You’ll oversee a skilled team, manage prep and service, and ensure we deliver excellence, efficiency, and consistency on our established menu — especially during peak service and banquet events.

What You’ll Be Doing

- Leading kitchen operations to ensure smooth, on-time service for lunch, dinner, and events
- Delivering quality, consistency, and volume based on the set menu and company standards
- Executing banquet service for tournaments, golf members, and special events year-round
- Managing kitchen staff including scheduling, training, coaching, and performance
- Monitoring food and labor costs to meet targets
- Ensuring kitchen cleanliness,



equipment maintenance, and Island Health compliance
- Working closely with front-of-house management to ensure smooth communication and service
- Overseeing ordering, inventory, and vendor relationships
- Acting as point person for third-party services (e.g. equipment repair, pest control, sanitation)

What We’re Looking For

- 5+ years of kitchen leadership experience in high-volume operations
- Experience executing set menus with consistency and quality control
- Banquet or large-scale event cooking experience is a must
- Solid background in managing food and labor costs
- Strong leadership skills and the ability to manage a tight, effective kitchen team
- Ability to stay calm under pressure and lead service with confidence
- Familiarity with health and safety regulations and best practices
