Hospitality Team Leads in New York City earn $33.66-$52.36/hr, above the national average.
Hospitality Team Leads are the working supervisors of restaurants, hotels, banquet halls, and catering operations. You run a shift, coach front-line staff, fix what goes wrong with guests on the floor, and report to the General Manager. Unlike a salaried manager, a Team Lead is hourly and works the floor for most of the shift - making it the most common stepping-stone role between line work and management.
Most hospitality team lead positions in New York City are available as temporary, part-time, or flexible shifts.
