Deliver plates accurately and on time, answer menu and allergy questions confidently, and stay attentive without being intrusive.

Set up event spaces correctly at the start and break them down efficiently at the end, leaving the event space clean and better than we found it. 

PAY

We pay a base wage of $24.00 - $32.00 per hour, plus occasional client gratuities. Base wage depends on relevant experience. Gratuities are optional for our clients, but when they’re paid, they’re shared among the team at that event. Events requiring extended travel offer additional hourly premium pay.
