ETHIC – Excellence, Teamwork, Hospitality, Integrity, and Compassion – steadfastly characterizes our mission to continually enrich the daily lives of residents. We practice these principles with every task and interaction, from personal caregiver assistance to mowing the grass. At Touchmark, we say:
I AM AN ALLY • I AM A FRIEND • I AM A GIVER
"To me, there is no great chef without a great team." - Daniel Boulud
Can you relate to the statement above? If you thrive on leading and educating a culinary team but wish you could retain creative freedom, hire and develop your own employees, take advantage of corporate benefits packages, and still be home most evenings at a decent hour, we’d like to talk to you about joining Touchmark at Mount Bachelor Village as our Executive Chef.
