A caterer works closely with clients to design, prepare, and serve menus for
events, including wedding dinners, charity balls, holiday brunches, office
lunches, and any other occasion where people gather and consume food.
Catering is the process or business of preparing food and providing food
services for clients at remote locations, such as hotels, restaurants, offices,
concerts, and events. Companies that offer food, drinks, and other services to
various customers, typically for special occasions, make up the catering
sector.
Caterer demand is projected to grow 10% from 2015 to 2025

Because caterers may often provide food for events that are on a strict schedule, like weddings or conferences, they should be able to work quickly and in a sometimes stressful environment.
