Where Your Culinary Adventure Begins
Imagine yourself in the heart of the nation's oldest city, Saint Augustine, working with a dynamic team at the luxurious Embassy Suites by Hilton St. Augustine. If you're a jovial team player with a passion for growth and learning, we have an adventure for you!
Sizzle in the Kitchen
As a pivotal member of our culinary team, you'll operate high-tech dishwashing equipment, master the art of organization with our storage systems, and become a hero of cleanliness, ensuring our kitchen shines brighter than the Florida sun. You'll also be a steward of our environment, diligently adhering to recycling regulations, and promptly disposing of kitchen substances and chemicals.
But it doesn’t stop there! You might find yourself sweeping, mopping, and ensuring the kitchen is in top form after each meal service and unforeseen spills. Plus, your knack for organization will be put to good use as you maintain the work area and kitchen equipment to maximize efficiency. And who knows, you may even have the opportunity to assist with other exciting duties!
What You'll Bring to the Table
You're a determined individual with basic reading, writing, and math skills. Experience in laundry is a bonus, but not a deal-breaker. You're comfortable with the ebb and flow of hospitality life, which may include night, weekend, and holiday shifts. Physically, you're up for the task – regular lifting of up to 50 pounds, moving around the work area, handling objects and equipment, and working in high-temperature areas doesn't phase you.
Your educational background? A high school diploma or general education degree (GED) would be great, or an equivalent mix of education and experience. Bonus points if you've got one to three months of related experience and/or training.
