The Dining Services Director will oversee staffing, scheduling, food preparation, menu execution, ordering, inventory, sanitation, food safety, and the overall quality of dining services.

Key Responsibilities

Lead, schedule, supervise, train, and develop Dining Services team members.
Manage day-to-day dining operations, establish priorities, and ensure appropriate staffing coverage.

Oversee food ordering, inventory, preparation, production, and service.
Ensure approved menus and recipes are followed consistently.
Ensure meals are nutritious, appetizing, properly prepared, and presented attractively.
Maintain high standards for cleanliness, sanitation, infection control, food safety, and proper chemical handling.
Ensure kitchen equipment and work areas are properly maintained, clean, safe, and organized.
Create a positive dining experience through strong hospitality, resident interaction, and responsive service.
Address resident feedback and identify opportunities to continuously improve the dining experience.
Maintain compliance with applicable food-service regulations, policies, and operational standards.
Perform additional duties as needed to support overall operations.

Required Qualifications

Minimum of 4 years of hands-on cooking and menu planning experience, preferably within senior living, hospitality, hotel, healthcare, or a similar dining environment.
Proven leadership or management experience within culinary or dining operations.
Strong knowledge of commercial kitchen operations and equipment.
Working knowledge of food safety, sanitation, proper food handling, and kitchen safety standards.
Must possess the applicable state Food Manager Certification or be able to obtain certification within 30 days of hire.
Strong leadership, organizational, communication, and team-development skills.
Ability to successfully complete required background screening.
Must meet minimum age requirements applicable to the position.
Must comply with the organization's Drug-Free Workplace policy.

If driving responsibilities are assigned based on business needs, a valid driver's license and acceptable Motor Vehicle Record may be required. Driving duties are incidental to the primary responsibilities of this position.

Preferred Qualifications

Technical or culinary school education.
Current Food Manager Certification.
Previous leadership experience within senior living dining services.
Experience creating a hospitality-focused dining environment for older adults.

What We're Looking For

We are looking for a leader who can balance culinary excellence, operational accountability, and exceptional service.

The ideal candidate is comfortable leading from the kitchen and the floor—developing a strong team, maintaining high standards, managing the demands of a busy dining department, and ensuring that dining remains one of the highlights of the residents' day.

Additional information regarding the organization will be shared with qualified candidates as they progress through the interview process.
