Head Chef – Modern Indian & Seafood

Munjoh Resorts- Andaman Islands

About the Role
We’re looking for a visionary chef – someone who wants to make their mark in the culinary world. At Munjoh Ocean Resort, you will have the creative freedom to craft modern Indian cuisine with a strong seafood focus, while also running a small, tight, efficient kitchen. This role is ideal for a chef-creator: someone who can design, execute, and elevate dining into a signature experience that guests remember.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead menu creation for modern Indian & seafood cuisine, blending tradition with innovation
• Curate seasonal menus that highlight local produce & fresh catch
• Execute dishes consistently at high standards, even in a small team setup
• Train & mentor a small kitchen brigade – instill discipline, hygiene, and creativity
• Manage kitchen operations: procurement, cost control, portioning & wastage reduction
• Collaborate with F&B and resort leadership to create unique dining experiences (beach grills, chef’s table, wine dinners, pop-ups)
• Ensure compliance with food safety, HACCP standards, and sustainability practices

What We Expect

• 6–12 years of culinary experience (hotel, resort, or fine dining background)
• Strong expertise in modern Indian cuisine + seafood handling & plating
• Ability to run a compact kitchen without dependence on a large team
• Creative thinker with passion for flavor innovation & presentation
• A doer – disciplined, reliable, and outcome-driven
• Good communication skills in English (must be able to explain menus to guests)

Who You Are

• A chef with ambition to be known for your craft
• Excited by the chance to innovate, experiment, and create signature dishes
• Entrepreneurial in spirit – you want to make a name, not just a living
• Comfortable with island life: resourceful, adaptable, and resilient

Why Join Munjoh

• A chance to create your own identity as a chef – we will showcase your talent
• Direct access to the freshest seafood & island produce
• A platform to experiment with pop-ups, chef’s tables, collaborations
• Work in a peaceful island setting with no long commutes, clean air, and natural beauty
