• Create a welcoming dining experience residents want to use
\n
• Build relationships with residents and actively gather feedback
\n
• Increase resident participation in the Dining Room

• Help build the identity and visibility of the Dorchester Dining Room
\n
• Coordinate day-to-day dining operations and service standards
\n
• Monitor food, labor, and operating costs
\n
• Jump in with service, food preparation, or cooking when the team needs help
\n

This is a hands-on position . We are looking for someone who enjoys hospitality, knows how to connect with residents, can bring new ideas to the table, and is willing to work alongside the team when needed.

Senior living dining experience is strongly preferred, particularly for someone who has helped operate or grow a successful resident dining program.

If you have experience creating a great dining experience and like the idea of taking ownership of a community dining program and helping it grow, we’d like to hear from you.
