Studio of Legends is looking for a creative and experienced Kitchen & Hospitality Lead to take ownership of Legends Kitchen, located inside our multi-level Downtown Toronto creative facility.

Studio of Legends operates recording studios, private events, artist experiences, content productions and Legends Lounge under one roof.

We are not looking for someone to simply heat up food and follow a basic menu.

We are looking for someone who can help us build Legends Kitchen into an experience of its own.

The Role

You will oversee food service for our entire three-floor facility, including:

- Recording studio clients
- Artists and their guests
- Legends Lounge
- Private events
- Venue rentals

Our kitchen is not a traditional full-service restaurant kitchen, so we need someone creative who understands how to produce great food efficiently while maintaining consistency, presentation and quality.

Responsibilities

- Prepare and execute food orders throughout the facility
- Lead day-to-day Legends Kitchen operations
- Improve and develop our existing menu

- Prepare food for private events and group bookings
- Develop event food packages and platters
- Maintain kitchen cleanliness and food-safety standards
- Help create an elevated hospitality experience for Studio of Legends clients
- Work closely with management to grow food and beverage revenue

What We're Looking For We want someone with personality,



creativity and pride in what they serve.

The ideal candidate is someone who can look at an existing menu and say:

“I can make this better.”

You should be comfortable creating new dishes, improving presentation, experimenting with specials and helping establish a recognizable identity for Legends Kitchen.

Preferred Experience

- Previous chef, cook or kitchen-management experience
- Experience developing or improving menus
- Strong understanding of food preparation and kitchen organization
- Experience with events, lounges, restaurants or hospitality is an asset
- Strong understanding of food cost and portion control
- Ability to work independently
- Reliable and organized
- Comfortable working evenings and weekends
- Able to work in a fast-paced entertainment environment
- Smart Serve certification is an asset for candidates assisting with beverage service

Schedule Approximately 25–35 hours per week initially, primarily evenings and weekends.

Additional hours may be available around private events, productions and increased kitchen demand.

Compensation

$22–$26/hour depending on experience.

Performance review after 90 days with opportunity for increased compensation and responsibility based on performance, menu development and growth of Legends Kitchen.
