Job Description

Are you a passionate F&B professional who is not afraid of thinking outside the box? Then we have the job for you! As a Senior Restaurant Manager you will strategically lead the Food & Beverage team to take guest satisfaction to the next level.

Fairmont Orchid offers oceanfront dining under Hawaiian skies, where guests gather, celebrate and connect over the most tantalizing flavors Hawaiʻi has to offer.  Experiences include offering laidback beach classics by the water, opportunities to swim up to a fresh-catch dinner on the sand, sitting down to a decadent paʻina (feast) in relaxed oceanfront elegance, or taking a culinary journey through Asian culture. Sharing incredible meals is just as much a part of the island experience as our big blue skies, picturesque beaches, pristine coastline and warm island hospitality.

Binchotan Bar & Grille is where fireside cooking meets modern flair. At Fairmont Orchid’s hottest new restaurant guests explore the long-running creative culinary exchange between Hawai’i and Japan at our Traditional northern Japanese grill utilizing centuries-old practices of robatayaki: fireside cooking, grilled to perfection. Originating from Hokkaidō, Japan, robatayaki reflects the seafaring lifestyle: seasoned fishermen grilling up their fresh catch over the irori, or glowing white coals, served sizzling hot.

In Room Dining is available in all 540 guest rooms & suites. Featuring signature gourmet dishes or hearty just-like-home selections. Perfect for our early-risers who crave breakfast in bed, romantic private dinners or small in-room gatherings.

Luana Lounge is an idyllic sunset spot made for intimate celebrations, romantic dates and special gatherings. Fairmont Orchid’s lobby-level lounge features island-inspired, hand-crafted sushi and cocktail in our lobby-level lounge. Guests mark another day of rest and relaxation by sipping chilled wine, specialty drinks and indulge in fresh sushi selections.
