Food & Beverage Admin Assistant

Major Food Group is hiring a Food & Beverage Administrative Assistant to join our team at THE GRILL & THE POOL!

THE GRILL is a historically based American chophouse set in midcentury New York. It takes great inspiration from history; both the time the Seagram Building was built and the restaurants that existed at that time. It is the precursor to the NY Steakhouse, when things were still intricate and elegant. It celebrates all the animals of the land and some of our favorites from the sea. There is extensive table side preparation and service. There is also extensive use of THE GRILL. It is the name of the restaurant, the style of restaurant, and the piece of equipment we use in the kitchen for many of our signature preparations.

THE POOL, situated in the landmarked Seagram Building, has been home to New York’s most storied parties and events for over half a century. With its soaring 20-foot ceilings, white-marble fountain, and shimmering chain curtains enveloping the walls, THE POOL is an iconic venue where the room itself is an occasion. Conveying mid-century elegance and fantastical grandeur in equal measure, THE POOL lends itself to a variety of configurations and is, simply put, the finest events space in all of New York City.
