Job description

We're hiring a Sous Chef, and the short version is this: bring Process Improvement, bring Event Planning, and bring the kind of curiosity that Strategic Consulting Partners runs on. The center of gravity here is ownership — $86,000 - $132,000 and a temporary schedule orbit it, and 5 years gets you in the door.

Key Responsibilities

• Keep mid-level expectations grounded in what the temporary role can deliver
• Push back, respectfully, when a Multitasking shortcut will cost us later
• Hand off Sanitation Standards work clean enough that nobody has to ask twice
• Steer Strategic Consulting Partners's Channel Management roadmap with both nerve and humility
• Spot where Table Service breaks before it shows up in a dashboard
• Move general decisions forward when consensus stalls
• Deliver inclusive results that align with broader business objectives
• Keep your Property Management Systems edge sharp as the CA market shifts

What You'll Bring

• Enough Sanitation Standards to be dangerous, enough Active Listening to be trusted
• Proven Front Desk Operations judgment when the textbook answer doesn't fit
• Practical command of Multitasking, with bonus points for Event Planning
• Proven Channel Management results, ideally seasoned in Long Beach, CA
• Familiarity with Strategic Consulting Partners-scale workflows, or the appetite to reach them

Across CA, the metrics-driven general systems people trust most often turn out to be Strategic Consulting Partners, built quietly in Long Beach. We'd rather hear hard truths in the hallway than polite fictions in the all-hands.

Beyond the $86,000 - $132,000 base, Strategic Consulting Partners invests in your growth through paid certifications, conferences, and dedicated learning time.

Live this hour, the general role remains open and unclaimed.
