• Assist with basic electrical repairs such as switches, outlets, lighting, and fixtures when qualified to do so.
• Perform minor equipment repairs and replacement of parts.
• Inspect restaurants for maintenance concerns and identify problems before they become larger repairs.
• Respond to repair requests from restaurant management and operations leadership.
• Communicate the status of repairs, parts needed, and any additional work required.
• Maintain tools, parts, and maintenance supplies.
• Coordinate with approved outside vendors when specialized repairs are required.
• Maintain accurate records of work completed, parts used, and outstanding repair needs.

What We Are Looking For

We are looking for someone who takes pride in fixing problems correctly, can work independently, and understands that keeping our restaurants operating is the priority.

The right person will be proactive rather than simply waiting for something to break. We want someone who can walk into a restaurant, recognize maintenance concerns, determine what needs to be done, and either complete the repair or help coordinate the appropriate solution.

This is a multi-restaurant position, so organization, communication, reliability, and the ability to travel are essential.
