Waitstaff
Visa sponsorship
Hospitality · Christchurch, New Zealand · Full-Time · $25 - $29/hr · Visa: Employer sponsored
Good waiters are worth their weight in gold, and this Christchurch restaurant knows it. The lively Mexican-themed spot in the city centre wants four experienced Waitstaff who can give top-notch service and sell food and drinks the way its system works.
No stiff service here. The crew are told to be themselves and have fun, as long as every guest gets what they need. If you have run a busy section back home, you will feel right at home on this floor.
It is full-time, 30 hours a week at the very least, and you will work nights, weekends and the full summer rush. There is regular in-house training on food, drinks and service.
The visa bit, straight up: the restaurant is an accredited employer and can assist through the immigration process if required, so AEWV sponsorship is an option.
