Known for its world-class amenities, including dining, golf, tennis, and waterfront activities, the club prides itself on delivering unparalleled service and maintaining the highest standards of hospitality. With a commitment to fostering a welcoming and exclusive environment, the club continually strives to exceed member expectations through attentive service and well-curated experiences.

The Outlet Manager role at the Tampa Yacht and Country Club is a challenging and rewarding leadership position responsible for managing the daily operations of the A la Carte and Pavilion dining outlets. This role requires a dynamic individual who can plan, organize, direct, and control both outlets while upholding the club’s service standards and policies. As an Outlet Manager, you will play a critical role in ensuring members and guests receive a consistently high-quality dining experience. This includes leading front-of-house teams, managing fiscal responsibilities, fostering a culture of hospitality, and coordinating seamlessly with culinary and other club departments.

This full-time position offers the opportunity to work within a well-established private club environment, where service excellence and member satisfaction are paramount. The Outlet Manager will be expected to demonstrate leadership skills by conducting pre-shift meetings, performance coaching, and maintaining a visible presence during busy hours and special events. Financial oversight, including labor scheduling, payroll accuracy, and cost control, is also an important aspect of the role. Additionally, the manager will need to ensure compliance with health, safety, and sanitation regulations, and uphold organizational standards for cleanliness and presentation.

Key to this role is the ability to build and maintain strong member relationships, manage guest feedback, and deliver effective service recovery. The Outlet Manager will act as the ambassador of the club’s hospitality values, fostering a professional and ethical work environment. Staff recruitment, training, and development are also significant responsibilities, with a focus on developing future leaders within the team. Collaboration with the Director of Hospitality and Service, culinary leaders, and other departments is essential to align outlet operations with the club’s strategic goals.

Overall, this role offers a unique opportunity to contribute to the legacy of one of Florida’s premier private clubs by leading exceptional dining experiences. The successful candidate will have a strong background in upscale or private club service, a passion for hospitality, and the skills to manage multiple outlets simultaneously while maintaining operational excellence and member satisfaction.
