Location: 2736 Robie st., Halifax, NS

Department: Hospitality – Culinary

Reports to: Hospitality General Manager

Job Type: Full-Time, Salary

ABOUT GOOD ROBOT BREWING CO.

At Good Robot, we’re building something bigger than beer.

We’re building a team that shows up for each other, takes ownership, and gets the job done.

We’re a group of people who believe in:

Camaraderie – we show up for each other
Ownership – no excuses, we solve the problem
Good Times, Serious Work – we work hard and have fun doing it!

ABOUT THE ROLE

We’re looking for a Head Chef to lead, evolve, and grow our culinary program.

This role is hands-on when it counts, strategic when it matters, and play a key part in building our kitchen revenue, developing our menus, and shaping the guest experience at our Robie St., Taproom.

This is an opportunity to own the kitchen, elevate the food program, and grow into leading multiple venues as we expand.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

Lead the kitchen during service — jump on the line when it counts
Own food quality, consistency, and execution every shift
Build and evolve menus that are creative, efficient, and sell
Control food + labour costs — and know your numbers
Turn kitchen performance into revenue growth
Hire, coach, and develop a strong, accountable team
Set the standard for culture, pace, and professionalism in the kitchen
Keep operations tight — prep, inventory, ordering, systems
Work closely with FOH to deliver a seamless guest experience
Build systems that scale as we grow into multiple locations

WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR

We care more about how you show up than just what’s on your resume:

Accountability – you own results (cost, team, quality)
Leadership – you build strong teams and make people better
Problem-solving – you don’t wait, you fix
Communication – clear. Direct, and team-first
Work ethic – you bring energy and consistency, especially when it’s busy

You’re someone who:

Thrives in a fast-paced, high-energy kitchen
Can zoom out (strategy, numbers, systems) and zoom in (line, service, execution)
Takes pride in building something – not just maintaining it

REQUIREMENTS

Proven experience leading a kitchen (Head Chef, Sous Chef, or equivalent)
Strong understanding of cost control (food + labour)
Ability to work evenings, weekends, and peak seasonal periods
Able to work in a fast-paced kitchen environment

Nice-to-have:

Experience scaling or opening kitchens
Background in high-volume hospitality environments

WHAT YOU’LL GET

Be part of a growing, scrappy, high-performing team
Real ownership over kitchen and its success
Opportunity to grow into multi-location culinary leadership
Work that is creative, challenging, and impactful
A team that values accountability, camaraderie, and doing things the right way

WHY THIS ROLE MATTERS

This role directly impacts guest experience, team culture, and revenue growth.

When this role is done well:

The kitchen is profitable, consistent, and efficient
The team is engaged, developed, and accountable
The food becomes a core part of the Good Robot guest experience

You’re not just running a kitchen – you're helping build a culinary program that scales with the business.
