Food and Beverage Management Intern - Summer 2026 (Housing Available)

Meal service is one of the things that makes Fair Hills Resort unique. Every stay includes at least one meal, and most guests enjoy three meals a day in our dining room. Our Food & Beverage team plays a huge role in shaping the guest experience, from daily dining to weddings and corporate events.

As a Food & Beverage Intern, you’ll work side-by-side with our Dining Room Manager and gain hands-on experience in all aspects of meal service, kitchen coordination, and event support. This is an operational internship—you’ll work in the department while also taking on leadership and management responsibilities. At Fair Hills, interns don’t just delegate, they learn by doing.

What You’ll Do

Your responsibilities will include, but aren’t limited to:

• Scheduling and training staff
• Serving meals and ensuring smooth dining service
• Supervising meal operations
• Planning, prepping, and executing events
• Handling dietary restrictions and allergy management
• Providing direct guest service
• Attending weekly leadership meetings

What You’ll Gain

Because food & beverage touches nearly every part of the resort, you’ll gain exposure to many areas of hospitality—vacations, weddings, corporate events, tournaments, and guest activities. You’ll also have opportunities to cross-train in other departments, broadening your knowledge of the resort business.

This internship emphasizes developing skills in:

• Organization and multitasking
• Creating a positive work environment in a fast-paced setting
• Guest service and communication
• Managing people and daily operations

Who We’re Looking For

This role is ideal for college students pursuing a degree in Hospitality & Tourism Management. We’re seeking interns who are eager to learn, enjoy working with people, and thrive in a dynamic team environment.
