About this position
BUSSER
We're looking for a Busser who understands that the dining room runs on the quiet excellence of the people who keep it moving. This role demands awareness, urgency, and discipline. Every table you reset, every glass you refill, and every detail you notice shapes the guest's experience before a server says a word.
Responsibilities
- Clear and reset tables promptly, to spec, with correct placement of silverware, glassware, linens, and settings
- Maintain water and bread service, anticipating guest needs without being asked
- Keep the dining room, service stations, and sidework areas spotless and fully stocked at all times
- Move with urgency and composure during peak service, never at the expense of guest comfort or safety
- Communicate clearly with servers, hosts, expo, and kitchen staff to keep table turnover seamless
- Transport dishware, glassware, and food runners safely and quietly
- Handle breakage, spills, and guest issues immediately and discreetly
- Follow all sanitation, safety, and health code standards without exception
- Complete opening, closing, and sidework checklists thoroughly
Qualifications
- Minimum 6 months of busser or support-staff experience in a full-service restaurant preferred
- Ability to work at pace, stay organized, and maintain awareness of the entire dining room
- Food Handler's Certification (or ability to obtain within 30 days of hire)
- Able to lift up to 30 lbs and stand and move for extended periods
- Reliable, punctual, and professional in appearance and demeanor
- A team-first mindset, a coachable attitude, and no tolerance for cutting corners
If you take pride in the details others overlook and want to be part of a team that does the same, we want to hear from you.
