Job Description

Guests at this sports bar and grill in Vereeniging come back for the people, and you'll be one of the reasons. This is a good step for someone who wants proper routine and a manager who notices good work.

Home base is a sports bar and grill on the Vereeniging side of Gauteng. There's a probation period of three months before the contract is confirmed.

The work, day to day

  • 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.
  • Clear, wipe and reset tables fast during the Friday and Sunday rush.
  • Restock the bar fridges and help with the weekly stock count.
  • Pull espresso shots and steam milk for flat whites and cappuccinos.
  • Split bills, process card payments and handle tip-outs at the end of shift.

You'll need

  • Quick with basic maths and card machines
  • At least 6 months of waitering, bar or coffee shop experience
  • You speak clear English and can chat easily with guests
  • You can stand and walk for a full 8-hour shift

Helpful, not essential

  • Wine knowledge from a WSET Level 1 or wine farm stint
  • A second language such as isiZulu, isiXhosa or Afrikaans
  • A barista course certificate or latte-art skills

What you get

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

How to apply for this job

  3. Use the form on this page. It takes about two minutes and you don't need to upload anything yet.
  4. Keep your phone on. Shortlisted applicants are contacted by call, SMS or WhatsApp within 5 working days.
