Umami Riot was born from a simple idea: pair joyful hospitality with uncompromising craftsmanship. Founded by Chef Tim Cushman and sake expert Nancy Cushman, our restaurants celebrate bold flavor, precision, and a deep respect for Japanese foodways—translated through a distinctly Boston lens. At Umami Riot, we’re not here to follow the rules of hospitality, we’re here to rewrite them—with heart, craft, and fearless creativity.
We’re looking for a Director of Events who owns the room before it’s even booked—driving revenue, building relationships, and turning every opportunity into something worth showing up for.
THE GIG (AKA WHAT YOU’LL ACTUALLY BE DOING)
Own the revenue — group sales, private events, and catering across the portfolio. From prospecting to execution to repeat business, you run the full lifecycle
Sell + close — build relationships that convert. Corporate clients, VIPs, local partners—you don’t wait for leads, you create them
Run the pipeline — outreach, tours, tastings, proposals, contracts. Keep deals moving and details tight
Execute clean — oversee BEOs, timelines, and client comms. Partner with operations and culinary to deliver seamless events
Drive growth — repeat clients, premium upsells, stronger accounts
Own off-premise — catering + third-party platforms as part of your revenue strategy
Know your numbers — forecast, track, and report with clarity
THIS ROLE IS A GREAT FIT IF…
LET’S SET EXPECTATIONS

IMPORTANT NOTE
