Second senior director of all dining hall and other food service operations. Develops policies and procedures and plans for operational improvements. Supervises activities of dining hall managers. Acts as the primary lead in the absence of the Dining Services Director. Prepares and controls departmental budget.

Employees have impact on budgeting, controlling costs, planning, scheduling, and procedural change. Under FLSA, this is the exempt job classification for this title. Incumbents in this position must meet the full criteria for exempt status: salary level, salary basis, and duties tests.
