Help open the most anticipated ballpark in baseball. A brand-new ballpark. The Las Vegas Strip. A guest experience built from a blank page. The A's are bringing Major League Baseball to one of the world's great entertainment destinations with a new ballpark of about 33,000 seats scheduled to open for the 2028 season, and Aramark Sports + Entertainment is leading its hospitality. We are hiring a Vice President of Hospitality to build it all, from the strategy and the premium experience to the food and beverage program, the retail, and the team. And your first day isn't Opening Day. It's Day One minus 365: a full year to design the experience, shape the programs, and build the team before the first pitch.
As the Vice President of Hospitality, you will set the stage for the ballpark's overall hospitality strategy and lead our relationship with the club. You will oversee both food and beverage and retail, leading two General Managers, one for each business, and build the opening leadership team around them. You will shape a premium-first guest experience and grow a year-round business of special events and catering that extends well beyond the baseball season. This is an on-site position that reports to Aramark Senior Leadership and serves as Aramark's senior partner to the club.
You are a visionary hospitality leader who combines operational excellence with strategic business acumen and a flair for creating memorable guest experiences. You have led large-scale, complex revenue operations, you make data-driven decisions, and you are as comfortable shaping a premium concept as you are sitting down with a club's executive team. You are energized by the chance to open something new, to build a team from the ground up, and to set a new standard for ballpark hospitality.
