Dishwasher / Runner – Food Services Team

About Futures Recovery Healthcare

Futures Recovery Healthcare is a state-licensed, Joint Commission accredited behavioral healthcare provider located in Tequesta, Florida in Palm Beach County. At Futures, we focus on treating the whole person, not just the behavior.

Our approach is holistic and patient-centered. Every team matters here—medical, clinical, behavioral health technicians, admissions, outreach, executive, culinary, alumni, and intake all work together to meet patients where they are. The goal is simple but meaningful: create a safe, supportive environment where healing and long-term wellness can take root.

About the Role

We’re looking for a dependable, energetic team player to join our Food Services team as a Dishwasher / Runner. This role is the heartbeat of the kitchen—keeping things clean, organized, and moving smoothly so our culinary team can focus on preparing meals that support healing and care.

If you like staying busy, working as part of a team, and don’t mind rolling up your sleeves, this could be a great fit.

You’ll work closely with the Food Services Manager and kitchen team to help keep everything operating at a high standard. Day-to-day responsibilities include:

• Keeping kitchen and dining areas clean, safe, and organized
• Operating commercial dishwashing and cleaning equipment
• Washing and sanitizing dishes, pots, pans, and utensils
• Taking out trash, mopping floors, and maintaining clean workstations
• Assisting with receiving and stocking kitchen deliveries
• Supporting proper storage practices (labeling, dating, organizing items correctly)
• Following all safety, sanitation, and facility procedures

What we’re looking for:

• High school diploma or GED preferred
• At least 1 year of kitchen or food service experience
• Strong teamwork mindset and willingness to help wherever needed
• Ability to stay organized and calm in a fast-paced environment
• Dependable, respectful, and committed to doing things the right way
• Comfortable with hands-on, physical work throughout the day

Physical Demands:

This is an active, hands-on role that requires the ability to:

• Stand and walk for extended periods throughout the shift
• Lift, carry, push, and pull up to 25–50 pounds regularly
• Bend, reach, stoop, twist, and crouch while performing duties
• Work in a fast-paced kitchen environment with frequent movement and deadlines
• Perform repetitive motions such as washing, scrubbing, and loading/unloading dishware
• Work in environments that may be wet, hot, humid, or noisy
• Maintain stamina throughout the shift while completing physically demanding tasks

Why this role matters:

This isn’t just dishwashing—it’s an essential part of the care environment. A clean, organized kitchen directly supports safe meals, smooth operations, and the overall well-being of the people we serve.

Your work helps the entire team deliver consistent, high-quality care every day.
