Senior Executive F&B Director
Job Title: Senior Executive Food & Beverage Director
Location: Greater Phoenix, AZ
Our client is an award-winning luxury resort property located in the Greater Phoenix area, currently in the early stages of a three-to-five-year, property-wide master plan that will touch nearly every part of the guest experience.
This role is being created to provide executive oversight across the entire F&B division — including the culinary team and the current F&B director — so that property leadership can step back from day-to-day F&B operations and focus on higher-level strategy as the property moves through its multi-year master plan.
This is a rare opportunity for an experienced F&B executive to take strategic ownership of a large, growing F&B program - approximately $19 million in current revenue, with a goal of doubling that over the next 18 to 24 months as new outlets open. The right candidate will bring vision, structure, and executive-level leadership to a program in the middle of significant growth.
Benefits:
● Medical, dental, and vision insurance
● 401(k) with a 3% automatic company match, plus a 25% match up to 6% of contributions
● 401(k) participation begins after 90 days of employment
● Unlimited growth potential
● Incentive of up to 30% above salary
● Salary range of $140-180K
Day in the Life:
● Provide executive-level strategic leadership across the entire food & beverage division
● Directly oversee the culinary leadership team and the current F&B director, aligning culinary and service vision
● Set the long-term strategic direction for the F&B program in partnership with senior property leadership
● Lead planning and execution for new F&B outlets opening as part of the property's master plan
● Own P&L performance and revenue growth strategy for the F&B division as it works toward doubling revenue
● Represent F&B leadership in senior property planning and ownership-level discussions
● Champion and help scale the property's service culture and training initiative across the entire F&B organization
● Build organizational structure and leadership bench strength beneath the director level as the division grows
Requirements:
● 8+ years of senior F&B leadership experience, ideally at the director or executive director level in a large, multi-outlet hospitality or resort environment
● Proven experience overseeing both culinary and service/beverage leadership within a single organization
● Track record of leading significant F&B revenue growth and/or new outlet openings
● Strong strategic and financial acumen — comfortable operating at the P&L and ownership-reporting level
● Experience with respected, high-standard hospitality brands; resort/hotel F&B experience strongly preferred
● Discretion and professionalism required given the confidential nature of this search
● Willingness to participate in a DISC personality assessment, in-depth reference checks, and other evaluation steps as part of a confidential interview process
● Demonstrated long-term tenure in past roles, given the multi-year scope of this position
