The College Light Opera Company, located in the resort area of Falmouth, MA on Cape Cod, is seeking a Chef de Cuisine for their 2019 summer season.


You will be responsible for lunch and dinner six days/week, feeding the 80-85 company members each day. Breakfast is cold (juice, cereals, milk), lunches are of the soup and sandwich variety, and the evening meal is the big meal of the day.


You will be in charge of all food purchasing and menu planning, with the approval of the Producer and within the $42,000 budget. Most food is purchased from and delivered by wholesalers. Two helpers assist the chef a half hour before lunch and dinner to help in preparation of salads, desserts, etc. The Director of the Cooperative Work Program supervises the dining room setup.
