Kitchen/Sandwich Line BOH Team Member

We’re looking for someone who isn’t afraid of an incredibly busy work-atmosphere to come in and learn our breakfast/lunch menu quickly and WELL. This person will be responsible for creating accurate and quality customer orders in a timely manner, performing back-kitchen prep, and be able to perform opening/closing/cleaning duties competently as well.

Must hold yourself to high standards and be an excellent multitasker and communicator. If you’re friendly, a fast learner, quick on your feet and energetic, you’ve got potential to be a great fit for our team. We aren’t open late-night, so you’ll get a great schedule with your nights to yourself. Must be available weekends (including Sundays) and holidays. Must be able to lift 50 pounds.

There’s quick opportunity for advancement to a leadership position (ie-Shift Lead) for the right motivated person. Leadership experience is nice but definitely not a must if you come in with the right energy, ambition and work ethic. Must be a team player.

Duties will include a variety of tasks from very basic (but important) like packing and running food to occasional full control of the sandwich line and a great deal in between. Multitasking and working well under pressure is a must. Friendliness is a must. Must have own (reliable) transportation.

Must be a VERY hard worker…..we don’t like to micromanage, so need people on our team who show up each shift ready to keep busy, even on quiet days, with a positive attitude. Strong communication skills are essential, as is being able to move quickly whether grabbing something from the back or just running food out to a customer. Friendliness, reliability, honesty and consistently positive attitude are expected. We pride ourselves on an upbeat workplace that’s nice to come to each day. Located just one block up from the waterfront in downtown Southport, we have been getting busier year after year. Must deal well with stressful situations and stay calm and productive (and friendly!) under pressure. For this specific position, there is opportunity for quick advancement if you come in and just wow us with your work ethic, performance, personality and customer service.

Compensation includes a combination of hourly wage and tip share, with a guarantee that your hourly average during training will reach or exceed $16/hour or we’ll make up the difference. After a successful training period, that minimum guarantee jumps to $18/hour. Must be able to commit to a minimum of four months, which is when any remaining amount of the guarantee would be paid out; ideally, however, this would be a long-term position for someone.

A cover letter or even simple personal statement of interest should accompany your application and will increase your chance for an interview. Feel free to drop your resume off in-person at Southport Coffee Co & Kitchen, to the attention of Lauren W.
