About this role
Leading the culinary operations at Canopy by Hilton Sioux Falls Downtown means owning both the creative and operational sides of the kitchen. You'll develop menus that reflect current food trends and regional preferences while managing the day-to-day execution of meal preparation, kitchen workflows, and food quality standards. This role requires balancing culinary vision with the financial discipline of budget management, cost controls, and profitability reporting—all while maintaining the high standards expected of a Hilton property.
Beyond the kitchen, you'll be responsible for building and sustaining a strong team through performance management, professional development, and recognition. You'll also engage directly with guests and the Food and Beverage Director to understand satisfaction levels and drive continuous improvement. Regulatory compliance—health, safety, sanitation, and alcohol awareness—falls under your purview as well, with an expectation that you foster a culture where these standards are non-negotiable.
This is a full-time, in-office position suited to an experienced culinary leader who thrives in a structured hospitality environment and can manage multiple priorities simultaneously: menu innovation, team development, financial oversight, and guest satisfaction. Hilton emphasizes values like integrity, leadership, teamwork, and accountability, so success here depends on both culinary expertise and the ability to inspire and lead others.
