Description About Appellation Born from the elegant merger of the culinary and hospitality worlds, Appellation is much more than a typical hotel company. Inspired by its name, this new hotel brand brings together the best of local elements in a new way: a hotel collection powered by people, connected by food, and defined by place — all designed to celebrate its destinations' culture, community, and craftsmanship. Developed by visionary co-founders Charlie Palmer, one of America's best-known, award-winning chefs and a pioneer of the American hotel-restaurant model, and Christopher Hunsberger, a 30-year veteran of Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts and its former President of North America. Join Appellation as its first hotels and resorts take root. Overview Of Position Great restaurants run on great shifts, and that's where you come in. As Restaurant Shift Supervisor, you're the person on the floor who keeps service moving, keeps the team sharp, and makes sure every guest — whether they're in for a quick glass of wine or a full tasting menu — leaves talking about the experience. You'll work side by side with the F&B Leadership, but during your shift, you set the tone: fast when it needs to be fast, warm always, and detail-obsessed from the pour to the plate. This is a hands-on, hourly leadership role — part coach, part expediter, part host — for someone who genuinely loves the energy of a working restaurant. Please note this position is shift-based, and hours will fluctuate with business needs. During slower seasons, when Shift Supervisor coverage isn't required, you may be offered Server shifts instead.
