“It was a bold man that first ate an oyster” – and we’re sure glad he did.

At Jake’s Grill and Oyster House , fresh oysters and seafood are our specialties. We’ve been serving the Burlington community since 1985, with no sign of stopping. Now, we’re looking for our next full-time dishwasher.

As the newest member of our kitchen crew you can count on a few things: a stable schedule, great working conditions, and being part of a close-knit team who truly enjoy working together.

If that sounds like what you’ve been looking for, then look no further!

Dishwasher:

As our new dishwasher, your main goal is to run and maintain our dish-washing area.

You will:

• Ensure our kitchen and front-of-house staff have the clean dishes and tools they need to keep our food service running smoothly
• Make sure all dishes, glassware, cookware, and utensils are cleaned and disinfected properly, and distributed throughout the kitchen and restaurant

When you’re not dish-washing, you’ll support our kitchen crew with basic food prep and portioning. You’ll also help us maintain a clean and safe restaurant environment by mopping, sweeping, cleaning equipment, and stocking restrooms.

The Right Fit:

While some dish-washing or kitchen experience will prepare you for this role, we’re more concerned about who you are, rather than what you’ve done. Our best dishwashers share these qualities:

• Reliable – this is an important job – even the best tasting food wouldn’t look appetizing on a dirty dish. You’re someone we can count on to show up on time and do the job well, because you care.

• Organized – your strong organizational skills will allow you to keep up with a fast-pace of our busy restaurant.

• Team-oriented – you have a strong team spirit and are always willing to pitch in wherever you’re needed. Throughout your day, you’ll enjoy a lot of interaction with your crew, and you’re always looking out to see where and how you can help them.

• Independent –You’re able to take and follow directions well, and you thrive in an environment where you’re able to manage your work independently.

Working at Jake’s Grill and Oyster House:

Almost half of our staff have worked with us for more than 5 years, and some have been with us for over 20!

If you asked them why they love working here, they’d tell you that it all comes down to the people. Our management team is well organized, our team is friendly, and our regular clientele keep us busy. We’ve worked hard to build a culture we can be proud of.

The Jake’s experience is defined by friendly faces, gracious service, a casual nautical atmosphere, the freshest ingredients, and a serious passion for hospitality.

We truly enjoy working here, and so will you.

The Details:

This is a permanent part time or full time role, offering shifts on evenings and weekends, starting at 4 pm until 11 pm.

You’ll be paid a competitive hourly wage and will also receive an above-industry standard gratuity share. You’ll also receive a 60% discount on all food!

Qualifications:

The major requirement for this position is your ability to:

• Lift up to 30 lbs regularly throughout an 8-hour shift
• Stand for the duration of your 8-hour shift (with regular breaks)

The following experience would be a big asset, but is not required:

• Experience working in a restaurant kitchen
• Experience working as a dishwasher in a restaurant/food service environment

We value diversity and inclusion and encourage all qualified people to apply.
