Escalate anticipated challenges before they become operational problems.• Participate actively in Food & Beverage leadership meetings, pre-conference meetings, operational planning sessions, and post-event reviews, ensuring critical information is communicated effectively through Banquets leadership to frontline associates.• Forecast and order supplies, beverage-related materials, service equipment, and other operational necessities sufficiently in advance of business needs while maintaining appropriate inventory and purchasing controls.• Protect Lodge assets through proper storage, handling, maintenance, inventory, and accountability procedures. Proactively identify damaged, missing, or insufficient equipment and develop solutions before deficiencies affect an event.• Ensure accurate payroll, timekeeping, billing documentation, beverage requisitions, inventories, equipment controls, and other required departmental records. Ensure associates receive required meal and rest periods and that scheduling and timekeeping practices comply with Lodge standards and applicable requirements.• Maintain compliance with Washington liquor regulations, food-safety requirements, Lodge policies, safety standards, and applicable employment practices.• Promote a culture of professionalism, accountability, collaboration, continuous improvement, and exceptional service throughout the Banquets team.**What are we looking for?**• Minimum of 5 years of progressive banquet, convention services, or hotel Food & Beverage leadership experience, including at least 2 years directly managing a high-volume banquet operation and large hourly workforce.• Demonstrated experience and thorough knowledge of banquet operations and event execution, BEO interpretation, labor forecasting and scheduling, departmental budgeting and expense control, purchasing and inventory management, coaching and corrective action, leadership development, Food & Beverage service standards, and applicable safety and liquor regulations.• Ability to translate forecasts and business levels into proactive staffing and operating plans while maintaining service quality, financial discipline, operational oversight, and associate development.• Ability to plan ahead, prioritize competing demands, complete projects and administrative responsibilities on time, and consistently follow through on labor, expense, staffing, purchasing, communication, and event-readiness expectations.• Excellent computer skills, including Microsoft 365 and hospitality systems.• High school diploma or equivalent required; degree in Hospitality Management, Business Administration, or a related field preferred.• Washington Food Handler Certification, Washington MAST Certification, and current ServSafe Manager Certification.View benefits and perks at Skamania.com/careers**Compensation:**$95,000-$114,000Pyramid Global Hospitality is an equal opportunity employer.
