Overview

Our client is seeking a Hospitality Technology Operations Leader to help lead and grow their hospitality technology practice.

This role is designed to bring structure, leadership, and operational oversight to a growing portfolio of hospitality clients. The position was created to support the expansion of the hospitality practice while strengthening service delivery and client relationships.

The ideal candidate comes directly from the restaurant or hospitality industry and understands the realities of supporting technology across multi-unit restaurant environments.

This is not a traditional MSP management role. Candidates who have spent most of their career inside managed service providers without direct restaurant operations experience are unlikely to be the right fit.
