Fontainebleau Miami Beach is a world-renowned luxury hotel that beautifully combines Golden Era glamour with modern luxury. Situated on the iconic oceanfront Collins Avenue in the heart of Millionaire's Row, it stands as one of the most historically and architecturally significant hotels in Miami Beach. Founded in 1954 and originally designed by the legendary architect Morris Lapidus, Fontainebleau Miami Beach has long been celebrated for its unique design and captivating presence. The hotel is a vibrant destination where design, contemporary art, music, fashion, and technology merge seamlessly to create an extraordinary guest experience. Fontainebleau offers its guests an inviting environment where they can play, shop, dine, spa, mingle, or simply relax as they define their perfect day.

The position available at Fontainebleau Miami Beach is a key role within the culinary team, working closely under the guidance of the Chef de Cuisine and Sous Chef. This role is essential for ensuring that the standard of food preparation and presentation meets the high-quality expectations set by the establishment, delivering both customer satisfaction and profitability. You will be part of an energetic, fast-paced environment where attention to detail, teamwork, and an unwavering commitment to food safety and hygiene are paramount. This role offers a rewarding opportunity to contribute directly to the guest experience at one of Miami Beach’s most prestigious hotels, where you will help maintain a stellar reputation in fine dining.
