  • Service & Presentation: Deliver food and beverages promptly with attention to presentation and quality, ensuring dishes and kitchenware meet the hotel's high standards. Execute formal service techniques (e.g., silver service) where required.
  • Dining Area Maintenance: Prepare and set tables with clean linens, silverware, and glasses before service, and maintain a tidy and organized dining area and workstation throughout the shift.
  • Payment Processing: Present itemized bills and process various payment methods (cash, credit card, room charge) accurately and efficiently.
  • Team Collaboration & Standards: Work closely with the kitchen, bar, and other F&B staff to ensure a smooth flow of service. Adhere strictly to all hotel policies, brand standards, and health and safety regulations.

Essential Skills and Qualifications

  • Experience: Previous experience (typically a minimum of one to two years) in a fine dining restaurant or luxury hotel environment is highly preferred.
  • Communication: Excellent verbal and written English skills are essential, with additional languages considered a significant advantage when catering to diverse international guests.
  • Professionalism & Etiquette: Impeccable personal grooming, a professional and confident demeanor, and a positive attitude are mandatory for maintaining the hotel's image.
  • Soft Skills: Strong customer service, attention to detail, time management, problem-solving skills, and the ability to remain calm and composed under pressure are crucial.
  • Physical Stamina: The role requires physical endurance to stand, walk for long periods, and carry heavy trays of food and beverages.
