* Coordinate with catering and banquet departments to deliver seamless large-scale events with exceptional culinary execution.
* Monitor kitchen equipment maintenance, manage supply orders, and implement cost-control measures to maximize efficiency.
Qualifications
* Extensive culinary experience with a strong background in fine dining, catering, or restaurant management.
