What are the responsibilities and job description for the Host position at Glenwood?
Thank you for your interest in the Glenwood.
The Glenwood is often incredibly busy. We also run two takeout only family-oriented casserole dinners on weekdays and often do catering as well. The environment is friendly but can also be stressful by nature. We work in tight quarters. It can be a difficult job to train into as it can be hard to learn in such a busy environment. We do strive to create a fair and understanding environment and to compensate our employees as generously as possible. We want our employees to see a direct result for their hard work, which we deeply appreciate. We are looking for candidates who feel that this is an attractive work situation and are willing to adapt to the environment. We will make every attempt to make you feel welcome. The Glenwood has been in business for around 50 years, and has employees that have been around for decades, so we believe that we are providing an incredibly stable work environment.
Our host positions center around breakfast and lunch service or takeout family dinner service which mostly happens curbside. Usually being the first person a customer interacts with, good communication and customer service skills are a must. It is essentially the host's job to organize a constantly changing restaurant so communication skills, organizational skills and ability to adapt are key. The job includes standing for extended periods of time, light lifting, and general foodservice. Point of sale experience is a plus. A valid Oregon food handler's card is required. A valid alcohol server's permit (or the ability to get one) is a plus. Depending on availability, this position is a potential gateway into a server position.
Please feel free to ask any questions. We look forward to hearing from you.
