Who Should Apply
Experienced catering wait staff for on-call event work (we can also train high potential individuals with other server or event backgrounds)
Please note: We define on-call work as being able to commit to an event shift several weeks in advance and follow through. We do not schedule you proactively, but in return we expect that you have control over your schedule to commit to shifts you have signed up for.
Not Hungry Catering is looking for thoughtful and detail-oriented wait staff experienced in executing high end events. This is an on-call position that allows you to accept shifts that fit with your schedule.
We are looking for front of house team members able to deliver at a high standard and high level of service while being able to follow process.
Not Hungry offers a boutique catering company with a very detailed approach to staffing and planning, which means that you get to run events off of a plan rather than the seat of your pants. Part of providing great service to our clients is understanding how to interact with them given our roles, being able to correctly answer questions about the menu items you're serving, and otherwise providing a high level of energy, professionalism, and service.
If that kind of process sounds like your cup of tea, then we'd love to hear from you and see if you jive with our team!
Success in this role generally looks like:
- Experience serving in front of house teams at high end events
- Understanding of 5 star service
- Great judgement and professionalism for the full duration of events
- Ability to buy into an established process
- Ability to both accept and provide constructive feedback
Why work at Not Hungry
Because we allow you to contribute in a meaningful way to the biggest events in peoples' lives while being supported by a talented team.
Not Hungry Catering is a high-end, design-focused catering company that prides itself on offering thoughtfully designed and beautifully presented catering to the most discerning clientele. Whether it's a dazzling downtown corporate gala, a gorgeous Malibu baby shower, or a wedding highlighting the fusion of different cultures (and food!), you help us shape the memories for each client you touch.
The role
This is an on-call wait staff position. Depending on your interest and availability, many of our staff also opt into other available event roles at our company
Our approach to catering
Our tagline is “Designed Thoughtfully. Crafted Lovingly. Presented Beautifully.” Our events reflect this across a range of different service levels (delivery to high end full-service) and themes (we’re known for a number of our thematic menus like high tea, small bites, and holidays).
As mentioned, we're pretty detailed for the industry. So expect to get pretty detailed information about what type of event you'll be walking into and some specifics about what (and who) matter to make this event a success.
Requirements
- Must have a reliable method of transportation, valid license and clean driving record
- Must be able to lift 50 lbs repetitively
- Fluent in English
- Excellent knowledge of food, drink, and service
Compensation
Hourly wait staff event rates between $18-22/hour DOE + tips
