The RCM provides coaching, guidance, and influence across multiple locations, working collaboratively with operations, finance, human resources, marketing, and client teams to elevate the guest experience. This role is responsible for developing high-performing culinary teams, ensuring food quality and safety standards, optimizing food and labor performance, supporting new business and retention efforts, and implementing innovation that drives guest satisfaction and business results.

This position requires extensive travel, with approximately 80% travel throughout the East Region (Washington DC, Virginia & North Carolina).
