Job Description

You'll look after tables at a sports bar and grill in Vanderbijlpark, from the first greeting to the final bill. You'll work with a small crew, so being easy to work with matters as much as skill.

You'll be based at a sports bar and grill in Vanderbijlpark. Living nearby, or on a taxi route to it, really helps.

What you'll actually do

  • Carry plates to the right seat without auctioning food at the table.
  • Check back two minutes after mains land and fix problems on the spot.
  • Split bills, process card payments and handle tip-outs at the end of shift.
  • 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.

What you need

  • Neat grooming and a friendly manner under pressure
  • Quick with basic maths and card machines
  • You speak clear English and can chat easily with guests
  • Grade 10 or higher; matric is a plus
  • You can stand and walk for a full 8-hour shift
  • At least 6 months of waitering, bar or coffee shop experience

Helpful, not essential

  • Responsible Service of Alcohol training
  • Wine knowledge from a WSET Level 1 or wine farm stint

What's in it for you

  • Paid menu and wine tastings so you can sell with confidence
  • Late-shift lift home within a set radius
