Job Description

You'll look after tables at a family steakhouse in Gqeberha, from the first greeting to the final bill. If you turn up on time and finish what you start, you'll fit in quickly.

You'll be based at a family steakhouse in Gqeberha. Living nearby, or on a taxi route to it, really helps. Start date: as soon as possible for the right person.

What your day looks like

  • Carry plates to the right seat without auctioning food at the table.
  • Greet guests, seat them and hand over menus within a minute of arrival.
  • Mix cocktails, pour draught and serve shooters to spec at the bar.
  • Explain specials, allergens and wine pairings in plain words.
  • Check back two minutes after mains land and fix problems on the spot.
  • Restock the bar fridges and help with the weekly stock count.

What you need

  • Neat grooming and a friendly manner under pressure
  • You can stand and walk for a full 8-hour shift
  • Happy to work nights, weekends and public holidays
  • You speak clear English and can chat easily with guests

Nice if you have

  • A second language such as isiZulu, isiXhosa or Afrikaans
  • Wine knowledge from a WSET Level 1 or wine farm stint

What you get

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

  3. Send your details with the form below. Add one or two lines about similar work you've done.
