Food Service Managers Job Overview
Food service managers deal with the daily operations of restaurants and other establishments that prepare and serve food and beverages to customers. They not only look after customer satisfaction, but also coordinate activities among departments, such as the kitchen, dining room and banquet room. They also look after the inventory, ordering of food, equipment, supplies, arranging for routine maintenance and preservation of the restaurant's equipment and facilities.
Food service managers are required to interview, hire, train and, whenever necessary, fire employees. In restaurants where there are both food service managers and executive chefs, the managers often help the chefs select menu items. Food service managers are among the first to arrive in the morning and the last to leave at night. Twelve to fifteen hours workdays are common, and sometimes they even end up working more than 50 hours per week.
Food Service Managers Schools and Degrees
About 1,000 colleges and universities offer 4-year programs in restaurant and hospitality management or institutional food service management. A growing number of university programs offer graduate degrees in hospitality management or similar fields. Community and junior colleges, technical institutes and other institutions are also available, which offer programs leading to an associate’s degree or other formal certification.
Job Requirements
The most common way to enter the profession is to work as a waiter or waitress, cook or counter helper. Post-secondary education is preferred for many food service manager positions. Many food service management companies and national or regional restaurant chains recruit management trainees from 2 and 4 year college hospitality management programs, which require internships and real-life experience to graduate.
Most employers give emphasis to personal qualities while hiring managers. Employees who are reliable, show initiative and have leadership traits are most likely to get promoted. Other qualities that are looked for are good problem-solving skills and the ability to concentrate on details. A neat and clean appearance is important as well, because food service managers must convey self-confidence and show respect in dealing with the public. Managers must be good communicators since they mostly deal with customers, employees and suppliers.
Nature of Work
Food service managers are generally responsible for all administrative and human-resource functions of a business, as well as recruiting new employees, monitoring employee performance and training new employees. Managers recruit employees at career fairs, contact schools offering academic programs in hospitality or culinary arts and arrange for newspaper advertising attracting additional applicants.
Food service managers need to ensure customer satisfaction and investigate and resolve customer complaints regarding service or food quality. They have to monitor orders in the kitchen, give directions about cleaning and continually monitor the actions of employees and patrons. Apart from these, food service managers also perform various administrative assignments.
Food Service Managers Jobs and Outlook
Food service manager jobs are expected to grow by 5 percent in the next 10 years. Many new eateries and bars are expected to open, and this will help generate new employment opportunities. In addition, the need to replace managers who transfer to other occupations or stop working will create new job opportunities. Most new jobs will be in full-service restaurants. Although practical experience is crucial in this field, applicants with a degree in restaurant, hospitality or institutional food service management will have an edge.
