Company description

Outstanding in the Field is a roving culinary adventure - literally a restaurant without walls. Our mission is to re-connect diners to the land and the origins of their food, and to honor the local farmers and food artisans who cultivate it. Since 1999 we have set a long, fine-dining table at farms, vineyards, city streets, docks, piers and beaches across the country. Outstanding in the Field events feature a five course, family-style dinner, paired with wine at our long table set in a scenic spot. Diners are joined at the table by the farmer, food producers, a winemaker and other local artisans associated with the meal.

Job description

*IMPORTANT: This job is not remote - we produce a number of private events throughout the year all over the US and encourage folks who are willing to travel to reach out.

We're seeking hardworking, hospitality-minded managers with a passion for human connection and a sense of adventure. We are hiring freelance/contracted production management team members to assist in the production and execution of our private events.

As a member of our crew, you'll get to experience a wealth of sustainable farms, hidden orchards, vast ranches, and other epic spots while leading the execution of our events and serving the long table. Our contracted private event management roles cover lodging, travel costs, and meals on event days.

We are looking for members who are team-oriented, compassionate, expert communicators, calm under pressure, and open to change. Outstanding in the Field (OITF) members should be willing and able to travel. Team members must enjoy being outdoors, and physically demanding work. Our events typically involve a 12 hour day, including set up, dinner service, and break down. All production staff must be able to lift at least 50 lbs. Our events are rain or shine. Team members will be working outdoors for the entirety of the event. Team members should be comfortable managing staff members and applicants must display relevant experience and references. All OITF employees must deeply care about food, farms, and the Outstanding in the Field mission.

Additionally, being authorized to work in the U.S. is a precondition of employment. We do not sponsor work visas (of any kind ) for this position at this time.
