Food And Beverage Manager

Welcome to St. Pete Athletic. We’re not just operating a club—we’re building a community, a standard, and a vibe. Think urban country club. St. Pete Athletic is where sport, hospitality, and social energy collide. With 14 pickleball courts, 2 padel courts, dedicated table tennis spaces, a full-service restaurant and bar, and amenities ranging from coworking to wellness to a garden oasis—it’s a place to play, connect, and belong. But our real secret? Hospitality. The kind you feel, not just see. We believe in creating moments that surprise and delight. And we’re looking for an F&B Manager who lives and breathes that philosophy. The Opportunity As our F&B Manager, you’ll bring the culinary and beverage experience at St. Pete Athletic to life. You’ll lead our front-of-house, bar, and coffee teams through launch and into daily operations—establishing systems, setting the tone for service, and creating the kind of high-energy, high-touch environment that people want to return to again and again. You’ll help shape the club’s food and beverage identity—where courtside cocktails and garden brunches feel just as intentional and memorable as a chef-driven dinner or a quick morning espresso. You’ll be a cultural leader, an operational pro, and a trusted coach for your team. What You’ll Do Build and Elevate a Hospitality Culture. Set and maintain a high standard of service, warmth, and professionalism across all F&B spaces. Be present on the floor—visible, warm, and tuned into both team dynamics and guest experience. Instill a culture of excellence and care among all service and support staff. Develop & Lead High-Performing Teams. Oversee and mentor concierge, bar/coffee, and FOH leads.

Support creative programming and events with intentional service and beverage execution. Collaborate on menu ideation, presentation, and guest feedback loops with kitchen leadership and ownership. Own the Details Without Losing the Vibe. Ensure health, safety, cleanliness, and compliance standards are met and exceeded. Implement thoughtful, efficient systems without over-complicating the guest or staff experience. Partner with Director of F&B and Director of Member and Guest Experience on ongoing performance tracking and strategy. Who You Are You’ve led food & beverage operations in high-volume, hospitality-forward environments—think boutique hotels, lifestyle clubs, destination restaurants, or experiential hospitality brands. You understand the power of thoughtful service and beautiful food to bring people together. You’re organized and detail-oriented, but never rigid—always leading with calm, flexibility, and grace under pressure.
