Line Cook - Sauté

Job Title: Line Cook - Sauté

Location: Indian Hills Country Club – Mission Hills, Kansas

Department: Kitchen

Reports To: Sous Chef

The sauté station isn’t for everyone. But if it’s where you feel alive, this is your kitchen.

At Indian Hills, the kitchen is more than a place to cook — it’s a place to create, refine, and inspire. We’re looking for a Lead Line Cook – Sauté who doesn’t just work a station but owns it. Someone who thrives in the rhythm of service, respects classical technique, and brings their own spark of creativity to the plate.

Can you keep your pans hot, your sauces tighter, and your plates cleaner when the board is full? That’s the challenge — and the thrill — of leading sauté.

What You’ll Do

· Command the sauté station with precision, speed, and confidence.
· Execute dishes that balance artistry with consistency — plating that excites before the first bite.
· Work closely with the Chef and Sous Chefs on specials, seasonal flavors, and menu development.
· Elevate standards by teaching and pushing the team toward sharper technique and better flavors.
· Treat mise en place as a craft — building organization and readiness into every service.
· Uphold the highest levels of quality, sanitation, and discipline in the kitchen.

Who You Are

· A culinarian with serious sauté chops and at least 2 years of professional experience.
· Hungry to learn, create, and refine — never just “punching the clock.”
· Composed in the fire of service, but competitive enough to thrive in it.
· Detail-oriented, disciplined, and organized — but not afraid to bring ideas to the table.
· Passionate about food — you read menus, cookbooks, and ingredient lists for fun.

What We Offer

· A professional kitchen that values technique, flavor, and creativity.
· Freedom to contribute ideas and grow through collaboration.
· Opportunities to refine skills on high-quality ingredients in a club setting.
· A culture that values excellence, respect, and craft over shortcuts.

If sauté is where you shine and you’re ready to step up as a leader, this is your chance to cook at a higher level — and help raise the bar for the whole team.
