Saverne   is a wood-fired modern brasserie from   Gabriel Kreuther , the celebrated chef of his two-Michelin-starred restaurant in Bryant Park.

  • Proven expertise in   whole-animal meat fabrication  (beef, lamb, pork, poultry)

  • Strong experience in   whole-fish breakdown   and portioning

  • Fine-dining or Michelin-level experience strongly preferred

  • Deep understanding of yield optimization, cuts, aging, and storage

  • Knowledge of sustainable sourcing and responsible utilization

  • Ability to work cleanly, efficiently, and precisely in an open-kitchen environment

  • Calm, disciplined leadership presence and strong communication skills

Responsibilities
  • Break down whole animals and fish with precision and minimal waste

  • Prepare and portion cuts for service, live-fire cooking, and daily production

  • Maintain impeccable organization, labeling, and sanitation standards

  • Collaborate closely with chefs to support menu development and specials

  • Manage inventory, yields, and proper storage practices

  • Uphold safety, sanitation, and HACCP protocols at all times

What We Offer
  • Full-time position   with consistent scheduling

  • Opportunity to be part of an   opening team   under Michelin-level leadership

  • A professional, respectful kitchen culture focused on craftsmanship and growth

  • Hands-on work with premium ingredients and whole-animal programs

  • Long-term growth potential within an expanding restaurant group

This is a rare opportunity to help shape a kitchen defined by respect for product, thoughtful technique, and culinary integrity—where live-fire cooking and classical discipline meet modern expression.
