About the role
With restaurants in Coral Gables and West Palm Beach, we're looking for an energetic, organized Local Marketing & Catering Sales Coordinator to grow local brand awareness, restaurant traffic, and catering and events sales across South Florida.
This role blends local store marketing and catering sales. You'll spend much of your time out in the community, building relationships, bringing local marketing ideas to life, and turning conversations into catering and event orders.
Reporting to our Chief Brand Officer, you'll work closely with Brand, Operations, restaurant General Managers, and Finance to make sure every promotion, event, and catering order is set up well and executed well.
Success in this role comes from equal parts curiosity, hustle, hospitality, and follow-through. We're looking for an early-career self-starter who enjoys meeting people, thinks like an operator, and loves turning ideas into measurable results. Success will be measured by growth in local awareness and restaurant traffic, community partnerships developed, catering leads converted, and catering sales at both locations.
Work Location:
This position is based in the South Florida region. We are prioritizing candidates located in the Miami metropolitan area or surrounding communities. Regular travel is required between Fuku restaurant locations (Coral Gables and West Palm Beach), as well as to community events, client meetings, and catering events.
What you'll do
Local Store Marketing & Brand Awareness
- You'll help grow awareness and traffic at both restaurants by building real connections in the communities around them.
- Build relationships with businesses, schools, offices, hotels, residential communities, and local organizations near both restaurants.
- Develop and execute local promotions and partnerships that introduce new guests to Fuku and encourage repeat visits.
- Coordinate community events, sampling, sponsorships, influencer visits, and other grassroots marketing activities.
- Identify local stories, events, and community moments that can support Fuku’s social media and marketing content, and share them with the Brand team.
Catering & Events Sales
- You'll help grow catering and events sales by finding new opportunities and following them through to a booked order.
- Identify catering and event prospects and conduct consistent outreach through calls, emails, visits, tastings, and local networking.
- Prepare proposals, follow up on leads, and help convert opportunities into catering and event orders.
- Serve as a friendly, responsive point of contact for catering guests from first inquiry through order confirmation and post-event follow-up.
- Track outreach, leads, catering sales, promotions, and results, and use what you learn to recommend next steps.
Execution & Operations Support
- Great marketing and catering only work if the restaurant can deliver. You'll make sure every order and activation is set up for success.
- Partner with General Managers to confirm catering orders, events, and promotions fit restaurant capacity and staffing before they are committed.
- Hand off orders with clear, accurate details (timing, headcount, menu, delivery or pickup, special requests) so restaurant teams can execute with confidence.
- Enter and update catering orders accurately in our ordering and tracking tools, keeping information organized and easy to find.
- Partner with Finance on catering invoicing, payment follow-up, and tracking spend on promotions, sampling, and sponsorships.
- Share guest and restaurant team feedback to help improve how catering and local marketing run.
Cross-Functional Partnership
- This role succeeds through collaboration. You'll be the connector between the community, Brand, and our restaurants.
- Work closely with the Brand team to align local activity with brand standards, campaigns, and priorities.
- Build strong working relationships with Operations, Training, and the General Managers at both restaurants.
- Communicate proactively across Brand, Operations, Finance, and restaurant teams so nothing falls through the cracks.
- Visit both locations regularly and represent Fuku in the community.

- Experience in a restaurant, hospitality, events, or other guest-facing operational environment is highly valued.

- Strong communication and relationship-building skills; comfortable initiating conversations, making sales calls, and following up consistently.
- Organized, self-motivated, and able to manage multiple projects and prospects in a fast-moving restaurant environment.
- Comfortable working with numbers, including tracking leads, sales, and spend, and using results to make recommendations.
- Familiarity with social media and office productivity tools (Google Workspace or Microsoft Office). Experience with a CRM, sales tracking system, or Toast is a plus.
Additional Qualifications
- Bilingual English/Spanish is a plus.
- Valid driver's license and reliable transportation with the ability to travel regularly between Coral Gables, West Palm Beach, and throughout South Florida.

Tips for Your Local Coordinator Job Search
Tailor your resume to program outcomes
Local coordinator roles prioritize demonstrated results over job duties. Replace task-based bullet points with outcomes: communities reached, events executed, timelines met. Hiring managers for these roles scan for evidence that you kept multiple moving parts on track without direct oversight.
Apply early to roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists local coordinator openings from across the United States in one place, so you can find roles that match and apply directly to each listing.
Filter by industry to find the right fit
Local coordinator responsibilities differ sharply between nonprofits, healthcare systems, and corporate event teams. When searching, filter by industry first so you're reading postings where your specific coordination experience, whether with volunteers, patients, or vendors, maps directly to what the role requires.
Highlight stakeholder communication experience
Most local coordinator interviews ask how you've managed communication across multiple groups simultaneously. Before your interview, prepare two specific examples where you kept internal teams, external partners, and participants aligned during a complex or time-sensitive project.
Show logistics and scheduling tool fluency
Postings for local coordinator roles frequently list scheduling software, shared calendar systems, and project management platforms as required or preferred skills. Name the specific tools you've used in your resume rather than listing generic abilities, since screeners often search resumes for tool names directly.
Follow up after submitting your application
Local coordinator hiring often moves through program managers who are actively running operations, not dedicated recruiters. A brief, professional follow-up email five to seven days after applying signals initiative and keeps your name visible without being intrusive.
Local Coordinator Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
Which companies are hiring the most local coordinators?
The most active employers for local coordinators right now are Qdoba, AnB Education, and TikTok, and the most openings are in California, Texas, and Missouri, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Demand tends to be strongest in organizations running active outreach programs or large-scale community initiatives.
How many local coordinator jobs are remote?
About 84% of local coordinator openings are fully remote or hybrid as of November 2026, with fully on-site roles still common in healthcare, education, and community services. Sub-areas like program administration, data reporting, and grant coordination are more likely to allow remote arrangements than roles requiring direct community presence or in-person event oversight.
How do you become a local coordinator?
Start by gaining experience in event planning, volunteer management, or administrative support through internships, community organizations, or entry-level program assistant roles. Build familiarity with scheduling and project management tools used in your target industry. Develop clear examples of managing cross-functional communication, then target coordinator postings that match your specific background and industry.
Can you get hired as a local coordinator with little experience?
Yes, many local coordinator roles are explicitly open to candidates with limited professional experience if you can demonstrate relevant transferable skills. Volunteer coordination, student organization leadership, community event planning, or administrative internships all count. Focus your application on concrete examples of organizing people or logistics under time pressure rather than years of paid employment.
What does the local coordinator interview process look like?
Most local coordinator interviews include a phone or video screen followed by one or two rounds with a program manager or department director. Expect scenario-based questions about how you've handled conflicting priorities, coordinated across teams, or resolved communication breakdowns. Some employers include a brief practical exercise, such as outlining a simple project plan or drafting a stakeholder update.
