- Schedule: Event-based, including weekdays, evenings, weekends, and holidays.
- Commute & Travel: Because we service off-site venues with varied end times, reliable personal transportation is highly recommended.

- Execute: Deliver exceptional, attentive service during the event, handling guest interactions with professionalism and serving food and beverages according to our standards.
- Site Care: Oversee the cleanliness of the venue and serving areas, ensuring all workstation and guest spaces remain sanitary and presentable.
- Tear-Down: Efficiently clear tables, scrape dishes, manage post-event equipment cleanup, and assist in loading everything back into our vehicles for transport.
What You Bring:
- Solid Fundamentals: Proven experience in front-of-house service or event catering with a strong grasp of professional hospitality standards.
