• Maintain employee records with a high degree of confidentiality and accuracy.
• Audit each kitchen using a standardized checklist covering sanitation, health, safety, and quality standards.
• Lead post-event debrief meetings with the culinary team.
• Develop corrective action plans, assign accountability and timelines, and follow through to resolution.
