Job Description
Red Lobster is a renowned seafood restaurant chain that began as a family-owned establishment with a vision of creating a special connection between people and the coast, through the love of seafood. With over fifty years of experience, Red Lobster has grown into a large family consisting of more than 500 restaurants, where each seat represents an extension of the founding passion for quality seafood and excellent hospitality. The company prides itself on being more than just a place to eat or work – it is a community hub where new friends become familiar faces and where customers can enjoy their favorite meals and create special moments. Red Lobster is deeply integrated into the communities it serves, making it a beloved dining destination.
The position available is for a Busser/Runner to join the Red Lobster team on a part-time basis. This role is critical in ensuring a smooth and pleasant dining experience for guests by maintaining the cleanliness and readiness of the dining area. The role offers competitive pay ranging from USD $17.13 to USD $25.00 per hour with weekly payment schedules. Employees benefit from flexible scheduling which balances work-life needs, and comprehensive insurance options including medical, dental, and vision coverage starting at less than $10 per week. Additionally, employees have access to life and short-term disability insurance, voluntary benefits, and a 401(k) retirement savings plan with company contributions after one year of service. Other benefits include anniversary pay (eligibility dependent), discounted meals during shifts, a 25% discount when dining as a guest, training, and various career advancement opportunities.

Your responsibilities will range from greeting guests with a friendly smile to preparing your station before shifts, ensuring tables are properly set with utensils and condiments, refilling drinks, clearing used dishes and glassware, delivering food promptly to guests, assisting servers as needed, and maintaining cleanliness and safety standards in accordance with food safety regulations. This dynamic role demands attention to detail, teamwork, physical stamina, and the ability to multitask efficiently in a fast-paced setting.
This opportunity is ideal for individuals seeking flexible part-time work with a supportive employer who values diversity, equal opportunity, and career growth.
