Food and Beverage Director
Director of Food And Beverage
Salary: €70.000 - €90.000
Start: ASAP
Languages: English and German
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.
What You’ll Be Running
You’ll own the entire F&B universe of the hotel:
- Restaurants, bars and lounges
- Banqueting and events
- Room service and event catering
- Kitchens, stewarding and all related systems (POS, inventory, rota, purchasing)
You are the first and last word on how our guests eat, drink, celebrate and experience our hotel.
Your Mission
- Design and deliver a bold, long-term F&B strategy that keeps us one step ahead of trends and competitors.
- Own the full P&L for the division: budgets, forecasts, cost control, margins and investment proposals all sit with you.
- Lead a high-performing leadership team (F&B Manager, Executive Chef, Bar Manager, Outlet Managers), setting clear goals, giving feedback and building the next generation of F&B stars.
- Partner with the Executive Chef to create concepts, menus and experiences that are craveable, profitable and on-brand.
- Elevate beverage culture: from wine lists and cocktails to partnerships and pop-ups that keep locals and guests coming back.
- Turn guest insights, reviews and data into smart actions that improve satisfaction, loyalty and spend.
- Make sure all the unsexy-but-crucial stuff is flawless: HACCP, hygiene, licensing, audits, safety and risk management.
What We’re Looking For
- 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.
