RESPONSIBILITIES

As a Event Captain - Catering and Events (Seasonal or Permanent), these are the results you'll be hired to accomplish:

» ① Invisible, Guest-First Service

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

» ② Well-Maintained Guest Areas

Clear plates, glassware, and trash quickly and often so dining tables, cocktail tables, and all other guest areas stay clean.

» ③ Efficient Event Setup & Breakdown

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.

WORK SCHEDULE

This position can be part-time or full-time, with a flexible schedule designed around the demands of our catered events. All-day, 6-10 hour weekend shifts are most common. Weekday shifts are also available, but typically reserved for full-time employees.

WILL YOU FIT IN HERE?

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.
