As a Catering and Events Server, these are the results you'll be hired to accomplish:

Quick & Accurate Food Execution

Flawless Food Prep & Pack

Clean & Organized Event Kitchen

Efficient Kitchen Setup & Breakdown

We pay a base wage of $18-$23 / hr, plus occasional gratuities. Base wage depends on relevant experience. Gratuities are optional for our clients, but when they're paid, they're shared amongst the staff at that event.

This position can be part-time or full-time, with a flexible schedule designed around the demands of our catered events. All-day, 10-12 hour weekend shifts are most common. Weekday shifts are also available, but typically reserved for full-time employees.

Our team has been built - brick by brick - on shared core values. And no, they're not just bullsh*t words slapped on a wall - they're who we are at our core - and they're non-negotiables for working here. You'll feel super *comfy* and right at home if these words describe you:

You Come With Batteries Included

You're a high-energy self-starter who jumps into action, and doesn't need hand-holding to get things done.

You're Scrappy

You're a resourceful problem-solver who makes things happen; if there's no door, you get in through a window.

You Take Your Work Seriously

You take pride in your work, big and small, and you have a natural reflex to do things the *right* way.

But, You Don't Take Yourself Too Seriously

You're a positive team player who owns up to your mistakes, is open to feedback, and is humble about your wins.

And if these words don't describe you? You'll be decidedly *uncomfy* here. So, fair warning - If you're a cranky a** problem-bringer who's cool being super-mid at your job and needs constant hand holding may we suggest working literally anywhere else?

Here are some of our must-haves & would-like-to-haves:

• At least 1 year of professional kitchen experience, preferably in a high-volume, fast paced catering environment
• Must have a current ServSafe Food Handler Certification
• Must be at least 18 years old
• Physically able to stand for long periods, lift up to 50 pounds, and work in extreme temperatures
• For part-time positions, must have consistent availability during peak shifts - including nights, weekends, and holidays
• For full-time positions, must have open availability
• Must be able to (or be willing to learn to!) drive large vehicles - including box trucks and extended vans
• Must have reliable transportation for getting to and from work
• Interest in food, cocktails, and hospitality trends - a major plus!
