    Hillstone Restaurant Group 4.7company rating

    Kitchen manager job in Beverly Hills, CA

    Our back-of-the-house programs substitute more in-depth chef training for front-of-the-house responsibility. Potential Culinary Managers at Hillstone generally pursue one of two tracks: one which leads to detailed operating responsibilities for a particular restaurant, and the other which culminates in an Executive Chef role. While the latter tends to attract candidates with formal culinary education, such training is not required for consideration. Hillstone welcomes candidates with culinary degrees who would prefer to pursue training with a front-of-house emphasis.
