Founded in 2015, the company serves a collection of seven world-class owned venues and a client roster of the most iconic arenas, stadiums, convention centers, music festivals, performing arts centers, and cultural institutions, spanning four continents.

The Sous Chef II is a key member of the culinary team at Amalie Arena, responsible for assisting the Executive Chef in managing all aspects of food production and service in their assigned Club, Suite Level, Pastry department, or Concessions. This role demands a passionate and experienced culinary professional with strong leadership skills, a keen eye for detail, and the ability to thrive in a fast-paced, high-pressure environment. The Sous Chef II will oversee kitchen operations, manage staff, and ensure the consistent delivery of high-quality food across all stadium food service areas in the Club, Suite Level, Pastry department, or Concessions.

From 2011-2013, Benchmark International Arena had more than $62 million in improvements that have clearly revolutionized the industry and made it the premier entertainment venue in the state of Florida. With a wide array of venues spread throughout the United States, it can be difficult to find one that distinguishes itself from the others. That is not the case with Florida's premier entertainment venue and home of the three-time Stanley Cup champion, Tampa Bay Lightning. Boasting unique features like lightning-throwing Tesla coils, the 11,000 square-foot Budweiser Biergarten with incredible views of the city and a massive five-manual, 105-rank digital pipe organ, Amalie Arena consistently ranks among the very best venues in the United States. The best part? This is only the beginning.
