Waiter / Waitress (Evening Shift)

You'll look after tables at a wine farm restaurant in Mossel Bay, from the first greeting to the final bill. Bring a calm head on busy days and you'll be fine.

You'll report in Mossel Bay. Relocation is not covered for this one. Shifts rotate, so you'll need to be flexible about days and nights.

• Pull espresso shots and steam milk for flat whites and cappuccinos.
• Explain specials, allergens and wine pairings in plain words.

• 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.
• Take orders on the POS tablet and read them back to avoid kitchen mistakes.
• Split bills, process card payments and handle tip-outs at the end of shift.
