At Breadbelly, we believe strong cooking fundamentals are the foundation of great leadership. Knife skills, mise en place discipline, and consistency in execution come first but equally important are advanced communication skills. We value chefs who can clearly articulate prep plans, delegate tasks with precision, and foster team culture through both verbal and digital communication. Our kitchen thrives on collaboration, curiosity, and bold flavor exploration. We hire for attitude first, then build skill through training, mentorship, and teamwork, developing cooks into leaders who balance technical mastery with clear, confident communication.
