Food Truck Team Member – Closing Shift Lead (Fixed Location)
Company: Fryway
Position Type: Part-Time / Full-Time
Pay: $22–$25/hr + Direct Tip Sharing (High-volume locations lead to significant daily tip potential)
Shift Focus: Evening & Closing Shifts (Consistent Fall/Post-Summer Availability Required)
The Role
We are seeking a reliable, high-energy team member to anchor evening operations and lead the line at our fixed-location Fryway truck. As the summer season wraps up and students head back to school, we are looking for someone dependable to manage our closing routines, maintain our high standards during evening pushes, and keep the kitchen running smoothly.
While your primary role will be locked into our fixed location, Fryway is always moving. For the right candidate, this position offers room to join our event crew, help transport staff, or even grow into leading a mobile truck on the road down the line.
Key Responsibilities
- Closing & Operations: Execute thorough end-of-night routines, including deep cleaning equipment, securing inventory, handling register closeouts, and locking up the truck safely.
- Service Excellence: Work the line during evening pushes, overseeing food preparation to ensure consistency, speed, and high-quality presentation.
- Kitchen Leadership: Take ownership of the evening shift, managing daily prep, minimizing waste, and maintaining a clean, efficient workspace.
- Compliance & Safety: Maintain rigorous adherence to food safety standards and provincial health regulations during all stages of prep, service, and closeout.
- Equipment Oversight: Handle basic start-up and shut-down procedures for kitchen equipment.
Growth Opportunities (Mobile & Events)
- Event Crew: Opportunities to step out from the fixed truck to work dynamic off-site events and festivals (5,000+ attendees).
- Transport & Driving: If you hold a valid G-Class driver’s license, you can help transport staff or gear—building toward operating mobile trucks in future seasons.
Qualifications
- Availability: Consistent availability for evening and closing shifts past the summer season (September onwards).
- Experience: 1–2 years of experience in a fast-paced food service environment or kitchen setting.
- Certifications: Valid Food Handler’s Certificate required.
- Licensing (Bonus): Valid G-Class Driver’s License with a clean abstract and comfort driving larger vehicles is a major plus.
- Physical Stamina: Ability to work on your feet in a compact, high-heat environment and lift up to 30 lbs.
Why Join Fryway?
- Competitive Pay + Tips: Base wage plus a direct share of daily tips.
- Growth Potential: Clear path from fixed-location closing lead to mobile event lead.
- Great Environment: Enjoy the energy of a fast-paced kitchen without the "four walls" of a traditional restaurant.
