About the Role:

By tailoring each guest’s experience to their unique tastes, you’ll create memories as delightful as the dishes.

• Own your kitchen – keep on top of supplies and equipment and minimize waste.
• Tell your supervisor or duty manager about any unsafe equipment, low supplies or safety incidents.
• Help create a safe space by following our safety procedures and wearing necessary protective equipment.
• Be cleaner than clean – meet or exceed local cleanliness and hygiene laws.
• Help with washing up and other kitchen duties when needed.
• Give guests a better experience by helping with any queries or advice.
• Wear your uniform with pride.
• Take on other ad-hoc duties when the whole team needs to pull together.

• Strong – sometimes you’ll need to lift, push and pull big objects up to 50lbs (23 kg). This can involve bending and kneeling.
• Literate – you’ll need a good grasp of reading, writing and basic math.
• Flexible – night, weekend and holiday shifts are all part of the job.
• Compliant – as well as meeting local laws on food handling and serving alcohol, you’ll be above the minimum age required and fluent in the local language.
• Articulate – a great communicator, you’ll be warm, welcoming and easy to talk to.
