As our FOH Shift Supervisor, you'll lead the daily operations of the restaurant, and own your shift! These are the results our FOH Shift Supervisor will be hired to accomplish:
- Good-Time Guest Experiences - You, dah-ling, are the director of good times. From the first hello to the last thank you, you'll make sure that every guest experiences hospitality at the highest level.
- Smoothly Run Shifts - You'll make the game play for the day, set up your shift for success, and when sh*t inevitably hits the fan? You're the cool-headed fixer, solving problems on the fly.
- The Right Things, Done The Right Way - You're the guardian of our standards. You'll ensure that our food & drinks are *perf*, that our guests feel taken care of, and that our space looks, feels, and sounds just right.
- A Fully Aligned & Supported Team - You're the glue, boo boo! You'll rally the team at pre-shift meetings, be the go-between for the kitchen and the dining room, and when someone's in the weeds? You're there, sleeves rolled up, ready to help.
- 'Goldilocks' Staffing & Labor Cost - You'll ensure that every shift is staffed 'just right'. Not too many, not too few, but just the right amount to make magic happen without breaking the bank.
