Job description

Summer Waitstaff — Many Little Bar & Dining

Many Little Bar & Dining is one of the Mornington Peninsula’s most celebrated dining destinations, recognised with a Chef’s Hat for the fifth year running in The Age Good Food Guide 2026.

We’re looking for experienced, professional section waiters to join our front-of-house team ahead of the summer season, with opportunities to continue beyond summer for the right people.

Set in the heart of Red Hill, Many Little combines refined dining with a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere. We believe exceptional hospitality is about more than delivering great food and wine — it’s about reading the room, anticipating needs and creating an experience that brings people back.

The Role

This opportunity is suited to experienced waiters who take genuine pride in their craft and understand what exceptional restaurant service looks like.

As a section waiter at Many Little, you’ll take ownership of your section from the moment guests arrive through to their final farewell. You’ll deliver knowledgeable, attentive and well‑paced service, confidently guide guests through our menu and wine offering, and work closely with the kitchen and bar to ensure a seamless dining experience.

We’re looking for people who understand the finer details of professional service — from menu knowledge and wine recommendations to timing, table management and anticipating guest needs without being intrusive.

You’ll be joining a team that values professionalism, consistency and a genuine passion for hospitality.

What We’re Looking For

• Proven experience as a section waiter in a quality restaurant or premium dining environment.

• The ability to confidently manage your own section and deliver polished, attentive service.

• Strong food and wine knowledge, with the confidence to make recommendations and engage guests.

• An understanding of service sequence, pacing, table maintenance and the finer details that elevate a dining experience.

• Excellent communication skills and the ability to work seamlessly with kitchen, bar and floor teams.

• A calm, organised and professional approach during busy services.

• A genuine passion for hospitality and a commitment to high service standards.

• A team‑first attitude, strong work ethic and attention to detail.

• Availability Thursday to Sunday, with increased availability throughout the summer holiday period.

Why Many Little?

At Many Little, we believe great hospitality comes down to people who care about what they do.

We’re proud of our reputation for thoughtful food, considered wine and warm, professional service. Our aim is to create an environment where experienced hospitality professionals can do their best work, continue developing their skills and be part of a team that takes pride in getting the details right.

You’ll work in an award‑recognised restaurant with high standards, a strong sense of identity and a team that understands the importance of looking after both our guests and each other.

We value people who bring experience, initiative and professionalism to the floor — people who can confidently manage a section, support their teammates and contribute to the overall rhythm of service.

What We Offer

• Competitive remuneration based on experience.

• The opportunity to work in a Chef’s Hat‑awarded restaurant.

• A professional, supportive team with a strong focus on service standards.

• Opportunities to further develop your food, wine and hospitality knowledge.

• A quality dining environment where attention to detail and genuine hospitality matter.

• The opportunity for ongoing employment beyond the summer season.
