MEET THE MANAGEMENT TEAM

The Union Club of British Columbia is home to a unique Management Team. Long-term success depends, above all, on the quality of the Team providing the leadership, direction and vision. The Union Club is in good hands with the current Management Team’s wealth of experience and knowledge of the hospitality industry.

To introduce (or re-introduce in some cases) your Management Team to you, your weekly email will now feature “Meet the Management Team”, where a different Manager will be profiled each week. This week we feature Alexander Amos, Executive Sous Chef:

Alexander Amos, Executive Sous Chef

Vancouver Island-born Alexander Amos began his cooking career in 2004. Starting out in the well-known and respected establishments of ReBar & Spinnakers Gastro Brewpub, Chef Alex began honing his skills.

Chef Alex continued to learn greatness under the guidance of one of Vancouver’s top chefs, Dale MacKay of Lumiere (one of BC’s only 2 Relais & Chateaux Properties at the time) and DB Bistro Moderne. Alex also spent time with Chef Hamid Salimian at Vancouver’s Diva at the Met, had a successful tenure with Mission Hill Winery, and continued his craft at the critically acclaimed establishment of Daniel Boulud in New York City.

At every post he held, Chef Alex quickly climbed the ranks, due to a continued demonstration of his passion and fine aptitude in all areas of practice. After returning from an extensive backpacking trip throughout Asia & Europe, Chef Alex returned with his eyes opened and his mind set – this was the career path for him, and the sky was the limit.

Now back in his hometown of Victoria, BC, and with the Union Club of British Columbia for the past 6 years, Chef Alex Amos is an extremely valued member of the team, and we are proud and honoured to have him in the position of Executive Sous Chef.
