About Forka Forka is a dynamic Food & Beverage holding company dedicated to building, operating, and scaling exceptional hospitality brands. Our business operates across three core pillars: we manage our own internal high-performing venues, we strategically invest in emerging F&B concepts, and we provide elite operational consulting to external clients. We are seeking a highly strategic Corporate Executive Chef who is equal parts culinary visionary and operational turnaround expert to lead our kitchen operations. Role Overview The Corporate Executive Chef & Head of Culinary Operations is a senior leadership role responsible for directing the culinary vision and back-of-house (BOH) mechanics across our entire portfolio. This is not a standard kitchen role. Because Forka actively acquires new venues and consults for external clients, you will frequently step into underperforming or unorganized kitchens. Your primary mandate will be to audit these operations, strip away inefficiencies, and implement rigorous Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), while simultaneously elevating the food quality. You will drive menu innovation with a specific focus on modern Lebanese cuisine, Mediterranean fusions, and high-level commercial baking. Key Responsibilities1. Operational Turnaround & Kitchen Standardization Conduct comprehensive operational audits of acquired venues or external consulting clients to identify workflow bottlenecks, hygiene risks, and structural inefficiencies. Spearhead the total restructuring of unorganized kitchens, implementing scalable, foolproof SOPs for prep, line execution, and closing duties. Standardize recipes, plating guides, and portion controls across all venues to ensure absolute consistency regardless of the location. Ensure strict, uncompromising adherence to local health codes, municipality regulations, and food safety standards (HACCP).2. Culinary Strategy & Menu Engineering Design, test, and launch innovative menus with a strong emphasis on authentic Lebanese cuisine, contemporary Mediterranean fusions, and elevated culinary arts. Oversee and integrate a specialized baking and pastry program, ensuring high-quality, in-house production of breads and baked goods. Continuously analyze menu performance, engineering offerings to balance culinary excellence with maximum profitability.3. Financial Control & Supply Chain Management Assume full accountability for group-wide Food Cost metrics and BOH labor percentages, consistently meeting executive EBITDA targets. Restructure flawed inventory and purchasing systems to eliminate food waste and prevent theft. Leverage the holding group’s purchasing power to negotiate highly favorable contracts with food suppliers, local farmers, and equipment vendors.4. Leadership & Talent Development Recruit, evaluate, and mentor venue-level Head Chefs, Sous Chefs, and BOH staff. Transform chaotic kitchen cultures into highly disciplined, respectful, and efficient professional environments. Develop comprehensive training manuals and conduct hands-on culinary workshops to upskill current kitchen teams. Qualifications & Requirements Experience: Minimum 8–10 years of progressive culinary experience, with at least 3 years operating in a Corporate Executive Chef, Culinary Director, or Multi-Unit Executive Chef capacity. Turnaround Expertise: A proven, verifiable track record of taking over unstructured, low-performing kitchens and successfully restructuring them into profitable, highly organized operations. Culinary Specialization: Deep, authoritative knowledge of Lebanese cuisine and Mediterranean fusions, supported by strong technical skills in baking and pastry arts. Financial Acumen: Elite understanding of kitchen P&Ls, yield management, theoretical vs. actual food costs, and labor forecasting. Leadership Profile: A highly disciplined leader with a commanding kitchen presence, capable of navigating resistance to change and instilling a culture of accountability. Language Skills: Fluency in English is required; Arabic proficiency is highly preferred for effective communication with regional suppliers and staff. What We Offer A seat at the executive table with direct influence over the culinary and operational direction of a growing F&B holding group. A highly competitive executive base salary with performance-based bonuses tied directly to food cost reduction and portfolio profitability. The autonomy to build, innovate, and lead across multiple distinct hospitality brands. How to Apply: Please submit your updated CV alongside a comprehensive culinary portfolio (highlighting your work in Lebanese cuisine, fusions, and baking) to info@Forka.com.
