Education

Many of these chefs have attended culinary school, though this is not always required. This job requires a lot of independence and is therefore not an entry-level position. A chef de partie should have considerable experience working in a professional kitchen at a lower level such as an apprenticeship.



Skills and Knowledge

A chef de partie is expected to be knowledgeable about the culinary industry and food preparation. Often chef de parties have a specialty such as pastries, which they should know thoroughly. A person holding this position must be organized, have the ability to delegate tasks well and be able to work well in a high stress environment. They should also be able to take direction well from either the sous chef or the head chef.



Duties

The main responsibility of a chef de partie is to oversee and aid in the preparation, cooking and presentation of food in a restaurant. They must delegate duties to chefs working in their section of the kitchen. Additionally, they must monitor to make sure food quality, presentation and safety standards are being adhered to. Finally, they are responsible for troubleshooting any issues that arise in their section of the kitchen.



Work Environment

Though restaurants are typically lean and attractive, kitchens can be hot and crowded. They may pose many safety threats such as hot stoves, sharp knives and wet floors. Additionally they can be very hectic during times when the restaurant is busy. Chefs are under constant pressure to make sure food gets prepared well and quickly. They may have to work long, irregular hours under high pressure.
