The Berry Hill Resort and Conference Center in South Boston, Virginia, seeks to add a full-time Sous Chef to our culinary team. Southside Virginia's premiere wedding venue and conference center, Berry Hill, hosts two restaurants and The Library Bar at Berry Hill Resort. The Sous Chef at Berry Hill will work with the Executive Chef to provide guests with great food and a superior dining experience. The Sous Chef is responsible for the creation and presentation of food served to guests, as well as maintaining kitchen operations and ensuring cleanliness while maintaining a professional work environment. Duties and responsibilities will include ensuring that food items are properly prepared, cooked and plated, back-up of the kitchen staff to ensure basic preparation duties are competed before each shift, work with kitchen staff to ensure proper safety and sanitation guidelines are followed. Works closely with banquet manager to ensure timely communication of planned events are disseminated and all client expectations are met. Must have the ability to multi-task, work under pressure in a fast-paced environment, lift 50 pounds, work nights, weekends, holidays, and time requirements required for a private event, have a positive attitude, and be self-motivated. A high school diploma is required, and a college degree is preferred. Culinary School graduate a plus. To apply send resume to: Historic Landmark in the Heart of South Boston The Berry Hill Resort & Conference Center, Virginia's premier wedding venue, resort and conference center, is nestled amongst a tree-lined forest covering 700 acres in the heart of historic South Boston, Virginia. This National Historic Landmark welcomed its first guests to the beautiful Virginia countryside in 1728. Our History About three miles west of South Boston, on the north side of the Dan River, an inconspicuous farm road turns south off the River Road. The half-mile drive, once lined with stately ailanthus trees, now all but gone, ends at a mossy stone wall enclosing a shady park of some thirty acres, in the center of which, riding the crest of a low hill, stands "Berry Hill," the majestic home of the Bruces. The completeness of the property's composition is remarkable. It is even more remarkable that a house of such grandeur should so long have remained almost totally unknown outside the Halifax County area. The reason for this seems to be its remoteness from the other great mansions of the Commonwealth. Justly acclaimed as the finest example of domestic Greek Revival architecture in the United States, Berry Hill was chosen in 1968 for inclusion in the book, Architecture in Virginia, commissioned by then Governor Mills Godwin.
