We are looking for dedicated, friendly, and service-oriented Cafeteria Staff to join a fast-paced environment where customer care, product quality, and cleanliness are essential. This role is ideal for individuals who enjoy working with people, maintaining high hygiene standards, and collaborating with a team to create a positive experience for every customer. The position involves active participation in food and beverage preparation and service, cash handling, restocking supplies, and maintaining the overall cleanliness and organization of the cafeteria.
The selected candidate will be responsible for greeting customers warmly, taking orders accurately, and ensuring that each request is handled efficiently. They will also assist with the basic preparation of coffee, cold drinks, snacks, baked goods, and other menu items offered by the establishment, following recipes, portion guidelines, and internal procedures. Attention to detail is important to ensure proper product presentation and compliance with food safety standards.
In addition to direct customer service, this role requires keeping the cafeteria clean, organized, and well-stocked throughout the shift. This includes cleaning tables, utensils, machines, display cases, and work surfaces, as well as checking basic inventory levels and communicating restocking needs.

This role may require rotating schedules, weekend shifts, or holiday availability depending on business needs. In return, we offer the opportunity to grow in an active work environment, gain experience in customer service and food and beverage operations, and contribute to a service that positively impacts the daily experience of guests and visitors.
