About this role
CONFIDENTIAL LEADERSHIP SEARCH | QSR / FOOD BUSINESS
Founding Culinary & Kitchen Operations Partner
Co-Founder / Equity Participation
Enwisen Global Advisors is assisting a confidential client in identifying a senior culinary professional to join the founding leadership team of an emerging Quick Service Restaurant (QSR) / Fast Food business.
This is not a conventional Executive Chef position.
The client is looking for an entrepreneurial culinary professional who wants to participate in building and scaling a food brand, with an opportunity for equity participation and long-term ownership.
THE MANDATE
The selected professional will take a leadership role across:
Menu & Recipe Development
Product Innovation
Food Costing & Menu Engineering
Kitchen SOPs & Process Design
Kitchen Team Development
Procurement & Vendor Management
Quality & Portion Control
Training & Standardisation
Multi-Outlet Scalability
New Product Development
Wastage & Cost Optimisation
Replicable Kitchen Systems
The objective is to build a culinary and kitchen operating system that can be consistently replicated as the business scales.
WHO ARE WE LOOKING FOR
We are interested in professionals who have experience as:
• Executive Chef
• Head Chef / Culinary Head
• QSR Kitchen Head
• Culinary R&D Professional
• Restaurant Operations Head with strong culinary expertise
• Food Entrepreneur
• Chef with proven experience in building menus and kitchen systems
More importantly, you should have an entrepreneurial mindset.
We are looking for someone who thinks beyond:
Can I make this dish
and thinks about:
Can we make this dish consistently, profitably and at scale
THE EQUITY OPPORTUNITY
The selected candidate will have the opportunity to join the business as a founding culinary/operations partner, subject to mutually agreed terms.
The equity structure will be based on factors including:
• Experience
• Role and responsibility
• Time commitment
• Contribution to the business
• Long-term involvement
• Agreed performance milestones
A suitable vesting structure will be discussed with shortlisted candidates.
LOCATION
Surat, Gujarat
The role is expected to involve significant hands-on involvement during the initial build-out phase.
THIS MAY BE FOR YOU IF...
You have spent years working for restaurants and QSR brands and have thought:
I want to build something of my own.
This could be an opportunity to do exactly that — with an existing business platform, entrepreneurial leadership and professional advisory support.
HOW TO APPLY
Please send your profile/CV along with a short note covering:
1⃣ Your culinary/QSR experience
2⃣ Your experience in menu & recipe development
3⃣ Your kitchen management experience
4⃣ Your experience with food costing and SOPs
5⃣ A food/product you have personally developed
6⃣ Why you are interested in an equity-based founding role
