This is a support position designed for someone who likes staying busy, works well with a team, and isn't afraid to jump in wherever needed.

Able to work quickly while maintaining attention to detail

Comfortable working in a fast-paced restaurant and bar environment

Strong teamwork and communication skills

Able to remain on your feet for extended periods

Able to lift and carry trays, bus tubs, cases, and supplies

Previous restaurant experience is helpful but not required
