Is This Role For You?

For You If
  • You have real experience in or deep connections to the hospitality industry—you speak the language of chefs, operators, consultants
  • You're a one-person content studio: can shoot, edit, write, and use AI tools to ship fast without a production team
  • You thrive outside the office—events, networking, 'boots on the ground' energize you more than desk work
  • You're obsessed with data and attribution—you want to prove that your ground-zero work moves the sales needle
Won't Work If
  • You need a fully remote setup or hate commuting to events and customer sites in your assigned cities
  • You're uncomfortable with scrappy solo content creation—you need a full creative/production team to move forward
  • You lack hospitality industry connections or experience—this role requires instant credibility in that world
