Bar Attendant (Weekend Shift)

You'll look after tables at a sports bar and grill in Brackenfell, from the first greeting to the final bill. People who do well here are steady, honest and not scared to ask when something is unclear.

The work is in Brackenfell, Western Cape, so you'll need a reliable way to get there every day.

• Greet guests, seat them and hand over menus within a minute of arrival.

• Take orders on the POS tablet and read them back to avoid kitchen mistakes.
• Pull espresso shots and steam milk for flat whites and cappuccinos.

• A second language such as isiZulu, isiXhosa or Afrikaans
• A barista course certificate or latte-art skills

• You keep your own tips, paid out daily or weekly
• Late-shift lift home within a set radius
• Paid menu and wine tastings so you can sell with confidence
