Job Details

Description

At Denny's, we're known for being America's Diner —where guests can relax, be themselves, and enjoy great food anytime. As a Lead Server / Key Holder, you'll help bring that experience to life by leading the floor, supporting your team, and making every guest feel right at home.

What You'll Do:

Lead the Shift: Be the point person during your shift—supporting the team, keeping service running smoothly, and stepping in wherever needed.

Create a Welcoming Experience: Make every guest feel like a regular. Greet with a smile, build connections, and ensure each visit feels personal and memorable.

Deliver Great Service, Every Time: Know the menu inside and out (yes, even the late-night cravings), make recommendations, and ensure every order is accurate and timely.

Support & Coach the Team: Jump in to assist servers, hosts, and kitchen coordination. Help train and guide team members to keep standards high and energy positive.

Key Holder Responsibilities: Open and/or close the restaurant, handle cash procedures, and ensure all safety, cleanliness, and brand standards are met.

Keep It Clean & Ready: Maintain a clean, organized dining and service area so we're always ready for the next guest—day or night.

Why You'll Love Working at Denny's:

Competitive Pay + Tips: Strong earning potential with opportunities to grow.

Flexible Scheduling: We work with your availability—full-time or part-time.

Growth Opportunities: Many of our leaders started right here. We invest in your development and promote from within.

Team Environment: Work with a supportive, high-energy team that feels more like family.

Perks: Meal discounts, flexible shifts, and a place where you can truly be yourself.

What We're Looking For:

• Previous serving experience required (lead or trainer experience a plus)
• Natural leader who can take charge and support a team
• Strong communication and guest service skills
• Ability to stay calm and organized in a fast-paced environment
• Dependable and comfortable handling opening/closing responsibilities

If you're ready to lead the floor, support your team, and deliver the Denny's experience our guests know and love, we want to meet you.

Come grow with us at Denny's—where every shift is an opportunity to make someone's day.
