Lead the Floor. Serve the Tables. Set the Standard.

  • Coordinate seating of residents and guests to ensure smooth, timely service
  • Supervise the appearance of the dining room and server stations
  • Schedule server stations and assign pre- and post-shift side work
  • Train and mentor new and existing servers, including safety and service protocols
  • Manage meal counts, reservations, and additional charges using the POS system
  • Communicate with the Dining Room Manager regarding flow, staffing, and guest experience
  • Step in where needed—from beverage and bar service to hands-on support during busy shifts

Bottom line: you’re the go-to leader and an exceptional server.
