Operating in a high-performance, client-focused environment, this leader ensures that employees and external stakeholders receive exceptional service, discretion, and consistency aligned with top-tier luxury hospitality standards.

In an alternative asset management environment where time, discretion, and performance are paramount, hospitality is more than a benefit-it is infrastructure and core to our firm culture.

This role oversees a fully subsidized, market-leading employee dining program that serves as a strategic differentiator in talent attraction, retention, and daily productivity.

The ideal candidate is a visionary, operationally strong leader with experience managing complex organizations, executing high-impact events, and leading high-performing teams. The role requires upholding the firm's exacting standards while driving efficiency, consistency, and innovation. With executive oversight of dining, hospitality services, reception, the client conference center, and fitness & wellness, this leader ensures that every experience reflects the excellence, precision, and professionalism of the Apollo brand.
