• Consistently deliver exceptional customer service to support strong CSAT (Customer Satisfaction) scores, ensuring every customer receives a welcoming, helpful, and memorable experience.
• As part of this role you will be working and in contact with a variety of different ingredients including dairy, nuts, meat products including pork

What we\'ll look for in you

• You are customer obsessed - you put customers first in every interaction
• You’re flexible, able to work across the weekends and evenings
• You have previous experience working closely with a team and you’ll ideally have prior work experience in a similar environment
• You are a friendly, hard-working individual who loves to provide a joyful customer dining experience
