Now Hiring: Food & Beverage Director

We are inviting you to apply for our open Director of Food & Beverage position. In this role, you’ll be responsible for all outlets, a thriving beverage program, and the banquet business. This is a high-volume operation. You’ll need to provide safe, effective, efficient, organized, quality-oriented, and profitable restaurants, bars, and a banquet operation in a family resort and convention environment. You’ll work with other food and beverage professionals and senior leaders at the property and at the corporate level to achieve your goals. A focus will be placed on operations, retention, adopting company culture, guest satisfaction, food quality and presentation, training, cleanliness, adhering to corporate standards, and managing revenue and expense expectations in a family-owned environment. As a leader, you’ll bring our Promise to life—supporting associates, inspiring teamwork, and delivering unforgettable guest experiences.

THIS POSITION IS ONBOARDING NOW, OPENING NOVEMBER 2026. As a ramp up this position will require up to 75% travel between test kitchen in Virginia, Corporate Offices in Wisconsin, and travel to exising properties. Preparation for opening and beyond, travel would be minimal.

What You’ll Do:

  • Oversee all F&B outlets, banquets, and catering operations to ensure high-quality service, consistency, and guest satisfaction.
  • Review budgets, control costs, monitor revenues, and drive profitability while maintaining quality standards.
  • Recruit, train, and lead F&B managers and staff, ensuring compliance with health, safety, and brand standards.

What We’re Looking For:

  • Management of a multi-unit and high-volume venue or hotel over 20MM in annual F&B revenue.
  • Minimum six years’ extensive managerial and supervisory experience in restaurants, bars, and banquet venues featuring kitchen management within a hotel and/or resort environment.
  • Minimum three years’ experience as a General Manager or Food and Beverage Director within a restaurant, large hotel, resort, or food and beverage venue required.
  • Prior experience with P&L accountability with a proven ability to successfully control food and labor costs.
  • Experience in a high-volume venue, such as an arena, stadium, or cruise ship, would be desirable.
  • Experience working for a family-owned company would be desirable.
  • A leadership style rooted in collaboration, respect, and service to others
