About this role

On's Chief Steward role manages the stewarding department for a 5-star hotel operation, overseeing inventory control, sanitation compliance, equipment maintenance, and cost efficiency across food service operations.

The position also involves team leadership—scheduling, coaching, performance evaluations, and professional development—requiring you to balance operational excellence with people management in a high-pressure environment.

This role demands substantial experience: a minimum of five years in 5-star hotel operations with at least one year as an Assistant Chief Steward at an international brand. You'll need strong supervisory and organizational skills, proficiency in Microsoft Office, and working knowledge of HACCP and hygiene standards. The ability to work independently under pressure while maintaining attention to detail is essential, as is solid verbal and written communication.

If you thrive in structured, regulated environments where operational precision and team leadership go hand in hand, and you have the specific 5-star hotel background this role requires, this is a direct path to a senior stewarding position at a major hospitality operator.
