We are looking for a dedicated Lunchroom Attendant to join our team and ensure a clean, safe, and welcoming environment for all lunchroom patrons. The Lunchroom Attendant plays a vital role in maintaining the overall hygiene and organization of the lunchroom, supporting both staff and guests by providing excellent customer service and upholding health and safety standards.
As a Lunchroom Attendant, you will be responsible for cleaning tables, chairs, and floors, disposing of waste, and replenishing supplies such as napkins, utensils, and condiments. You will assist with the setup and breakdown of the lunchroom before and after meal periods, ensuring that all areas are ready for use and that any spills or messes are promptly addressed. Your attention to detail and proactive approach will help create a pleasant dining experience for everyone.
In addition to cleaning duties, you may be asked to assist with basic food service tasks, such as serving food, monitoring food stations, and helping guests with their needs. You will interact with a diverse group of people, including students, staff, and visitors, so strong communication and interpersonal skills are essential. Adhering to all health and safety regulations is a key part of this role, as is reporting any maintenance or safety issues to the appropriate personnel.
The ideal candidate is reliable, punctual, and able to work independently or as part of a team. Previous experience in a similar role is helpful but not required, as on-the-job training will be provided.
