Carlsbad, CA Full Time
POSTED ON 4/1/2026
AVAILABLE BEFORE 5/1/2026
We are looking for a driven Chef de Cuisine to help lead the team at one of San Diego’s most ambitious new restaurants: Wildland.

From Chef Eric Bost and restaurateur John Resnick, and located in Carlsbad Village, down the street from our other restaurants, Campfire, Jeune et Jolie (Michelin 1-Star), and Lilo (Michelin 1-Star), and just a few blocks from the ocean, Wildland debuted in December of 2024 as a sprawling restaurant, bar and bakery, open night and day. Inspired by the vibrant community of North County, and celebrating the creative culture of California by bringing bold ideas to the timeless traditions of France and Italy, Wildland represents an original perspective on the all-day, community restaurant.

Big and bustling, with nearly 200 seats and a team of over 100 incredible people, the restaurant requires strong, passionate and experienced leaders who crave the joys of hospitality and of bringing people together to do work that is meaningful and important.  We are looking for a Chef de Cuisine to lead a large and diverse team of passionate people, someone who shares in the vision of creating delicious and hospitable experiences for our guests, taking great care of our employees, and doing something that we believe is both impactful and important: ensuring that the time every person spends with us, is time well-spent.

The right candidate for this role will have a history of leading high quality restaurants as Chef de Cuisine or Executive Chef, with experience in California and Italian cuisines, demonstrated success leading, coaching, mentoring and inspiring their teams, creating cultures of accountability and of quality, as well as possessing a thorough understanding of restaurant administration and finances.
