Original job description
We are looking for Banquet Server to join our team!
If you are a person who has a knack for multitasking and enjoys a fast-paced, exciting work environment, this is the perfect job for you! This seasonal position runs from October through January, with overnight shifts scheduled between 12:00 a.m. and 8:00 a.m. Candidates must be available to work weekends.
Job Description
As a Banquet Server, you have the authority to exceed guest expectations by creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere that coincides with our “we’ve been expecting you” sense of arrival for our guests. Your role is crucial because you are pivotal in the guest’s impression of quality service throughout our hotel. From setting up and executing events to the breakdown of the room so that events can happen again the next day – or even the next hour, you are an essential member of the Food & Beverage Team.
Pomeroy Perks
This position may work dayshift, afternoon, or evening shift any day of the week or weekend with long days to meet periodic upturns in business demands or meet deadlines. This position is set in a fast-paced and, at times, high-pressure environment that requires continuous physical movement, the ability to lift up to 30 lbs., and the ability to manage multiple sequences and demands. There may be periods of independent work and changes in temperature from the back to the front of the house.
