You are a hospitality leader who lives where great food, crafted drinks, and memorable stories meet. You think in concepts, dream in menus, and you know that a buzzing bar or a full restaurant is just the visible part of a perfectly run machine behind the scenes.

You love the balance between strategy and floor presence: one moment you are shaping the multi-year F&B vision, the next you are on the floor, feeling the vibe, talking to guests, and coaching your leaders.

5–7+ years in senior F&B leadership within a 4* or 5* hotel or large-scale hospitality environment.Proven success running multi-outlet operations with strong revenues and complex structures.A commercial mindset: you are as comfortable talking GOP and RevPASH as you are tasting a new signature dish.Inspiring people leader with experience managing senior managers and large teams in fast-paced operations.Deep knowledge of F&B trends, guest experience design and a genuine curiosity for what’s next.Fluency in English; any additional language is a bonus.
