The Dining Room Attendant / Busser position is integral to the food and beverage operations, serving as both front-of-house and back-of-house support within the dining program.

The role requires vigilance in maintaining a clean workstation and a readiness to perform any additional tasks as directed by the Food and Beverage Manager.
Critical skills for the role include excellent oral communication, organization, attention to detail, and problem-solving abilities. Physical demands such as standing for long periods, lifting up to 30 pounds safely, and adapting to various environmental conditions, including indoor and outdoor settings, highlight the importance of physical resilience and safety awareness.
