Assistant Manager – F&B

Account Management – Work Dynamics (region/country)

What this job involves:

Navigating through the gruelling demands of dining operations

For many people in the food industry, a busy kitchen and a military unit operate similarly—both require rigour, discipline and precision for success. So if you’re looking to grow your strength in the F&B area, this role may be perfect for you!

Like a high-ranking officer creating order and efficiency in a brigade, you’ll need to foster camaraderie and teamwork to get a kitchen through the rapid-fire demands of busy operations. You’ll also emphasize the biggest success factor in the kitchen—discipline—to ensure dining establishments’ strict adherence to high standards in food safety and quality. You’ll be an authority—like a military officer inspecting the troops—as you must go above and beyond in monitoring food preparation methods, portion sizes and presentation to ensure that a dish is as it should be, or even better!

Adopting intelligence officer-like vetting skills will help you go a long way, as you can use these in reviewing and developing menus based on factors such as nutritional value, popularity and cost.

Additionally, before the start of food service, you’ll need to sample the prepared food—it’s the best way to guarantee palatability and flavour conformity.

Keeping an eye on feedback, records and supplies

Are you an expert in handling customer feedback? In this role, you’ll develop ways to gauge customer satisfaction. You’ll also look into complaints about food quality and service, and see to it that such issues are resolved accordingly.

Taking a proactive stance, you’ll review our operations regularly to identify opportunities for improving service, safety and overall performance. Likewise, you’ll determine which food offerings are popular among consumers.
