About Museum of Ice Cream

Museum of Ice Cream transforms spaces into imaginative, interactive experiences where connection, creativity, and joy take center stage. With ice cream as our playful medium, we design immersive worlds that spark wonder, create community, and leave lasting memories. Our Las Vegas Flagship will be our largest, boldest, and most dynamic location to date.

About the Role

We’re hiring a senior leader to launch and lead our Las Vegas Flagship in 2026,  a high-volume, multi-channel flagship experience expected to welcome over half a million guests per year. This is a unique opportunity to lead an eight figure revenue venue with oversight across operations, sales, marketing execution, F&B, retail, and events. You’ll build and manage a team of 150+ with an emphasis on radical hospitality, performance, and best in class hospitality. You oversee the end-to-end P&L, including local community, city relations and a significant on the ground marketing and field team. You also serve as the connective tissue between HQ functions and on-the-ground execution.

You’ll be accountable for delivering best-in-class guest experiences, operational precision, revenue growth, and cultural integrity, all within one of the most high-profile hospitality markets in the country. This is a rare role that blends strategic leadership with real-time ownership of people, systems, and performance. You’ll begin with immersive training at our flagship New York City location, gaining hands-on experience with our people, systems, and brand before stepping into full leadership at your home market.

  • Build a leadership pipeline by developing future GMs and senior managers
  • Partner with the People Team to ensure consistent training, onboarding, and performance standards

  • Proven P&L ownership in a business unit with $15M+ revenue and 150+ staff
  • Experience leading cross-functional teams (e.g., ops, marketing, F&B, retail, events) under one roof
  • Hospitality hours : Available weekdays and weekends, with the majority of presence on weekends
  • Confident operator with strong business acumen, analytical skills, and comfort navigating ambiguity
  • Deep commitment to guest experience, team culture, and operational excellence
  • Highly collaborative and communicative — builds strong partnerships up, down, and across
  • Tech-savvy and open to tools (including AI) that drive smarter, faster execution
  • Ready to Apply?
