About the role

This role supports a highly discerning ownership group with a strong appreciation for gastronomy, elevated service, and global travel. The ideal candidate brings a genuine passion for food, wine, and cocktail craftsmanship, with the ability to curate thoughtful, detail-driven experiences on every flight. This is not a transactional service environment. It requires someone who takes pride in anticipating preferences, designing menus, and delivering a refined, restaurant-quality experience at altitude.

The account operates frequently across Europe and Mexico, requiring a globally minded individual who is adaptable, culturally aware, and energized by international travel. Equally important is the ability to integrate seamlessly with an established flight crew, supporting a collaborative and professional onboard dynamic.

This is a dedicated, full-time placement. We are seeking someone who is looking to own an account, build consistency, and deliver a long-term, elevated service standard.

This position requires being based within a 1-2 hour drive from our headquarters in Van Nuys for operational efficiency. Additionally, candidates should be able to perform beyond traditional responsibilities, ensuring the highest standards of cabin comfort and readiness, and demonstrating a commitment to safety, luxury, and impeccable service, which are the hallmarks of Silver Air's industry leadership.
