Food & Beverage Manager in Carmel-by-the-Sea, California at Le Petit Pali

WHO WE ARE:

Palisociety is a society of unique hotels and residences — Palihouse, Palihotel, Le Petit Pali, ARRIVE by Palisociety, and a growing collection of independently branded properties. Since our first hotel opened in Los Angeles in 2009, we've grown into a nationwide portfolio of neighborhood-centric hotels, restaurants, bars, and event spaces, earning recognition from Condé Nast Traveler, Travel + Leisure, the New York Times, and more.

We consider our employees our greatest asset: structured training from day one, consistent feedback, and a clear path for growth. We develop our leaders from within, because the strongest hospitality companies are the ones that grow their own.

ABOUT LE PETIT PALI CARMEL-BY-THE-SEA:

Both properties offer intimate bespoke lodging with custom design details and thoughtful in-room touches, welcoming guests near and far to create fine and memorable experiences.
