  • Sanitation & Safety: Maintain a clean and sanitized workspace in accordance with ServSafe or health department regulations.
  • Inventory Control: Label, date, and rotate stock using the FIFO method; monitor ingredient freshness and notify supervisors of low stock.
  • Member Service: Interact professionally with club members and guests, providing attentive and friendly service in an open-kitchen or outdoor setting.
  • Point of Sale: Accurately process member transactions and billing through the club's POS system when required.
