Wolfgang Puck Catering Salary: $78,000 - $90,000 Other Forms of Compensation: Annual Performance Bonus Opportunity (Up to 25% of Base Salary)

Where Passion Meets Purpose - and Careers Come Alive At Wolfgang Puck Catering, great careers are crafted the same way great food is - with passion, intention, and the right people around you. We hire for curiosity, spirit, and heart, and we invest in everything you bring to the table. Through mentorship, real development, and a clear path to leadership, we're committed to your journey - not just your job title. Come be part of something that challenges and champions you in equal measure. "I can have the best food, but if we don't have good people, it won't get you very far." - Wolfgang Puck

Success on our team starts with our culture:

We have Wolfgang’s PASSION for our business, our product, and our people / guests / clients.
A FLEXIBLE MINDSET is key; we are strategic business partners who wear multiple hats.
Our services require a CONCIERGE mentality, a bias to action with humble hospitality.
We are out-of-the-box PROBLEM SOLVERS, who look around corners so our clients and guests don’t have to.
We curate company and partner resources to bring our client’s vision to life. We seek to cultivate the next generation of talent, purveyors and partnerships.
We bring an entrepreneurial approach to deliver results for our clients (you might call this scrappy).
Collaboration and openness to innovative business tools, new ways of thinking and ability to partner across departments are essential to create optimal business solutions.

“I can have the best food, but if we don’t have good people, it won’t get you very far.” Job Summary

This role offers the opportunity to shape exceptional culinary experiences in a professional corporate environment while leading a talented and engaged team.

Monitor food and labor costs while maintaining quality standards and operational efficiency.
Manage purchasing, inventory, and product utilization to support financial goals and minimize waste.
Maintain production records, waste tracking, and operational reporting as required.
Ensure compliance with all federal, state, and local health regulations, as well as company food safety and sanitation standards.
Establish and maintain cleaning, maintenance, and preventive care schedules for kitchen equipment and work areas.
Participate in client meetings, team development initiatives, and company-wide programs that support continuous improvement.

What We're Looking For

Associate degree in Culinary Arts, Hospitality, or a related field, or equivalent professional experience.
Experience leading culinary teams in corporate dining, catering, restaurants, hotels, or other high-volume foodservice environments.
Strong catering experience, including planning, production, and event execution.
Hands-on leadership style with a willingness to work alongside the team during service and events.
Knowledge of menu planning, food costing, inventory management, and kitchen operations.
Understanding of current culinary and catering trends with a focus on quality, sustainability, and guest experience.
Experience managing multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment while maintaining attention to detail.
Strong communication and relationship-building skills with team members, clients, and operational partners.
Comfortable using Microsoft Office, Outlook, email, and web-based business systems.
ServSafe Certification or willingness to obtain certification.
