Part Time Dishwasher & Cleaner Position

Small catering company seeks part time/on-call dishwashers in Cotati, CA. Responsibilities will include washing dishes, glassware, pots, pans, and any equipment requested to be cleaned by the chef. Additional responsibilities will include scrubbing heavy equipment (ovens, stovetops, etc.), cleaning bathrooms, emptying garbage cans, washing windows, general organizing and other reasonable cleanliness related tasks that arise.

This position is part time and on call with an estimated need of 10 hours per week and will increase as the company grows. The hours are never steady and are based around the event schedule of the business. The starting wage is a minimum of $20 per hour with the opportunity to increase.

The ideal candidate for this position is someone with at least 6 months of foodservice experience, has a strong work ethic, and has an organized mindset. This role is the foundational support that allows the chefs to focus on their tasks-at-hand by assisting with dishes and kitchen cleaning, as well as being consistently on top of the overall cleanliness and sanitation of the kitchen. Must be willing to accept all reasonable task requests and execute with a positive attitude.

The benefits of the job include

- A fun and positive work environment

- Opportunity to learn foodservice trade skills that include food preparation, cooking, table service, etc., making this a great role for a freshman culinary student.

We understand this is an entry-level position with opportunity for growth and we do not expect our dishwashers to take on major responsibilities. However, we need this person to be hardworking, have a positive attitude and set the tone for an exemplary environment. As the position is part time with a changing schedule, we promise to be flexible with your other jobs, however, we will not tolerate consistent call-outs or no-call-no-shows for shifts. Therefore, applicants must promise a sense of reliability and will be on time for confirmed shifts.

Note that additional skillsets will be considered. Example: If applicants have a background in maintenance work, or prior culinary experience, a higher starting wage will be considered because more tasks may be included in this position.
