About DishwasherHero
Founded in 2006, DishwasherHero supplies back-of-house and event staff to hotels, restaurants, touring productions and large events across Canada and the United States.
About the role
From our Montréal office, you’ll recruit, screen and onboard staff for assignments across multiple cities. You’ll work with local field teams to make sure our clients, including a national hotel group and an international touring production, have qualified staff ready to work on day one.
What you’ll do
- Plan recruiting around each assignment’s roles, staffing needs, timelines and client standards.
- Source candidates through job boards, culinary schools, community partners and referrals.
- Interview candidates by phone, video or in person in Montréal. Coordinate recruiting days and practical kitchen assessments with local teams.
- Verify experience and references, and coordinate work eligibility checks, background checks and food-handler certification verification as applicable.
- Coordinate onboarding, including hiring paperwork, client briefings and uniforms.
- Build a pool of screened, available workers, including backup staff, at least seven days before each launch. Confirm first-day staffing with local teams.
- Report weekly on the candidate pipeline, staffing readiness and recruiting costs.
What you bring
- Two to four years of experience in recruiting, staffing or hospitality operations, ideally in high-volume or event recruiting.
- Hands-on experience in food service, hospitality or events and the ability to assess candidates’ practical skills.
- Strong spoken and written French. English is required to interview English-speaking candidates in the U.S. and coordinate onboarding with U.S. field teams. Spanish is an asset for communicating with Spanish-speaking candidates.
- Ability to manage recruiting campaigns and deadlines across several cities at once.
- Comfort with applicant tracking systems, spreadsheets and messaging tools.
- Legal authorization to work in Canada.
