About Us

Blue Dog Hospitality is a restaurant group located at the Jersey Shore, operating The Deauville Inn, Yesterday's Creekside Tavern, and Inky's Cantina + Taqueria. We have active venues where summer crowds, live music, cold drinks, and packed dining rooms define our busiest months. From April through October, our brands come alive — and we’re looking for a creative, hands-on Seasonal Marketing Manager to help tell our story, drive traffic, and capture the energy of shore season.

The Role
