Job Description

This is a floor job at a sports bar and grill in Pinetown where your tips follow your service. Expect to be trusted with real work from your first week.

This post is in Pinetown (KwaZulu-Natal). Please only apply if you can travel there daily.

The work, day to day

  • Pull espresso shots and steam milk for flat whites and cappuccinos.
  • Carry plates to the right seat without auctioning food at the table.
  • Set tables, polish cutlery and glasses, and check condiments before doors open.
  • Refuse service to anyone under 18 or visibly drunk, as the Liquor Act requires.
  • Check back two minutes after mains land and fix problems on the spot.
  • Clear, wipe and reset tables fast during the Friday and Sunday rush.
  • Take orders on the POS tablet and read them back to avoid kitchen mistakes.

What you need

  • Own transport or a safe way home after late shifts
  • At least 6 months of waitering, bar or coffee shop experience
  • Happy to work nights, weekends and public holidays
  • You speak clear English and can chat easily with guests

Helpful, not essential

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

What you get

  • You keep your own tips, paid out daily or weekly
  • Uniform supplied and laundered
  • Paid menu and wine tastings so you can sell with confidence
