Back of the House Porter / Dishwasher

Job Description

The true hero behind a lean and clean kitchen team is the Porter. The type of individual we’re looking for should be passionate about food safety & sanitation. This key back of house role makes sure the glassware, utensils, plates, and pots & pans are spick and span. They proactively ensure the floors are swept and clean, and the trash cans are frequently changed. Most importantly, they’re someone that takes pride in a clean kitchen.

This would be a great position for those looking for career growth and development! Once everything is clean, sanitized, and organized, there should be plenty of time to lend their fellow teammates a hand. This could include being trained on a new station or assisting the cooks on the line, learning a new recipe by giving the prep cooks a helping hand, or assisting the FOH staff clearing and resetting tables or running food. Ideally, the Porter would be someone who’s flexible, with an open mind and an attention to detail, and a willingness to learn new skills. The perfect candidate is an individual eager to grow in the hospitality industry.
