Job Description

You'll look after tables at a sports bar and grill in Gqeberha, 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 site is in Gqeberha; early starts mean public transport timing matters, so check your route before applying.

What you'll actually do

  • Clear, wipe and reset tables fast during the Friday and Sunday rush.
  • Pull espresso shots and steam milk for flat whites and cappuccinos.
  • 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.
  • 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.

Must-haves

  • Quick with basic maths and card machines
  • You speak clear English and can chat easily with guests
  • Happy to work nights, weekends and public holidays
  • Grade 10 or higher; matric is a plus

Extra points for

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

On offer

  • You keep your own tips, paid out daily or weekly
  • Staff meal on every shift
  • Paid menu and wine tastings so you can sell with confidence

Applying, step by step

  1. Make sure the role, the hours and working in Gqeberha really suit you before you apply.
  2. Keep copies of these ready to send: a one-page CV with a recent photo plus contact details for your last restaurant manager.
  3. Fill in the short form below with your name and a phone number you actually answer.
  4. If you're shortlisted you'll hear from us within 8 working days, usually by phone.
