Description

We are looking for a passionate Team Member who can help us create exceptional dining experiences at our new Queensway fresh pasta store and restaurant. We won’t just be cooking and serving our customers the freshest pasta in town (although that’s a big part of it!), but opening doors to one of the coolest locations in town.

Picture this: we’ll have chefs making fresh pasta in the window of the store to entice the good people of Queensway in. There’ll be the hippest Italian funk and jazz on stereo, the smell of ragù in the air, fresh pasta making classes in-store, and much more.

As a Team Member, your role is all about creating delightful moments for our customers. We want candidates who ooze passion, are confident, charming & wear an easy smile with customers, and who want to be part of our exceptional new fresh pasta concept coming to Queensway.

Opening hours: Monday to Thursday, 11am to 11.30pm. Friday: 11:00am to 12:00am. Sunday: 11:00am to 10.30pm.

• Handle orders swiftly and accurately, ensuring a smooth and enjoyable experience for every guest.
• Create a positive dining atmosphere by being attentive and proactive in meeting customers' needs.
• Be part of the magic in the kitchen, preparing pasta dishes that look as good as they taste.
• Follow our treasured recipes and techniques to ensure every dish meets our high standards.

• Keep an eye on our ingredient supplies and let the shift manager know if we’re running low on anything essential.
• Make sure the dining area is always inviting and immaculate.
• Regularly clean and sanitise tables, chairs, and other surfaces to ensure a safe environment.
• Follow all health and safety guidelines to keep both customers and colleagues safe.

• Take part in team meetings and training sessions, bringing your ideas and enthusiasm.
• Support your colleagues, especially during busy times, and be willing to take on additional tasks as required.

Who you are

• Experience in customer service or food service is a plus, but a passion for Italian cuisine is what truly matters.
• Enthusiasm for learning about our menu and sharing that knowledge with customers.
• Excellent communication and people skills.
• Ability to thrive in a fast-paced environment and juggle multiple tasks with grace.
• A positive attitude, reliability, and a strong sense of teamwork.
• Flexibility to work various shifts, including evenings, weekends, and holidays.
• Bonus point! Any experience in coffee, wine, and pasta would be advantageous, but it’s your zest for life that we are looking for.
• … If you dream in pasta shapes, you're in the right place.

What we can offer

• Competitive salary to attract the best talent
• Join a dynamic, fast-moving & diverse team
• Join a growing business with growing opportunities
