Multiconcept operator Bloomin’ Brands promoted Sheilina Henry to president of Fleming’s Prime Steakhouse & Wine Bar chain.

Henry joined Bloomin’ Brands in 2012 as an Outback Steakhouse joint venture partner. She was promoted to vice president, training and development in 2016, regional vice president of operations in 2019, and group vice president of diversity, equity and inclusion in 2020. She most recently added leadership for off-premises dining to her senior vice president responsibilities.

In her new role Henry assumes responsibility for leading operations and development for the company’s fine-dining chain. In addition, company growth will undoubtedly be on her agenda. “New restaurant growth is a priority at Fleming’s, and it is as close as the new flagship location that recently broke ground across the street from the Restaurant Support Center in Tampa,” said David Deno, chief executive Officer of Bloomin' Brands in a statement.
