Pam's track record of success in the hospitality industry spans more than 15 years, with specialized experience in training and development. During her tenure at The Cheesecake Factory, she led more than 25 new restaurant openings, designed training materials, selected and developed talent and oversaw implementation of operations for the high-volume brand.
"Pam's strengths are her attention to detail and her innate ability to build relationships with strong communication and negotiation skills," says Michael Vucurevich, Principal at VSAG, and former EVP of The Cheesecake Factory. "As Director of Recruiting and Talent for VSAG, she will leverage her abilities to identify the right people to open and operate restaurants successfully. We're thrilled to have her on our team."
In her career, Rukas has educated more than 350 managers in recruitment, management and retention plans for new stores and developed, trained and coached for over 1,400 staff positions. In Human Relations at Cheesecake, Rukas balanced employee needs with budget requirements, ensuring that new store training and operating costs remained within or under budget, with an average cost savings 10%.
