Red Lobster is more than just a dining venue; it is a place where friends become family and every team member plays an integral role in delivering outstanding service and quality.

The Dishwasher/Utility position at Red Lobster is a vital role within the restaurant team, responsible for maintaining cleanliness and organization throughout the restaurant. This full-time role is designed for individuals who thrive in a fast-paced environment and enjoy working as part of a team. As a Dishwasher/Utility team member, you will be responsible for cleaning and sanitizing all dishware, flatware, glassware, pots, pans, and cooking utensils to ensure guest safety and satisfaction. Proper operation of industrial dishwashing equipment and other related machinery is a key aspect of the job. Beyond dishwashing duties, this role also supports the kitchen team by assisting with prep work, including the preparation of Red Lobster's signature Cheddar Bay biscuits and other necessary tasks.

The position offers flexible scheduling, making it ideal for individuals looking to balance work with other commitments. Weekly pay and competitive wages ensure fair compensation, with additional benefits including access to medical, dental, and vision insurance plans starting at less than $10 per week. Life insurance, short-term disability, and voluntary benefit options provide further financial security. After one year of service, employees become eligible for the company's 401(k) retirement savings plan with matching contributions, helping team members plan for their futures. Anniversary pay and discounted meals contribute to a supportive work environment where hard work is recognized and valued. Red Lobster also prides itself on investing in employee growth by providing ongoing training and career advancement opportunities.

Physical stamina and attention to cleanliness and safety protocols are essential for success in this role. The Dishwasher/Utility team member must be able to bend, reach, stoop, lift up to 50 pounds safely, and stand for extended periods over an 8 to 12 hour shift. A team player mindset, attention to detail, and ability to multitask effectively under pressure are critical qualities. Culinary experience, while preferred, is not mandatory, as the company offers training to help employees excel. At Red Lobster, every decision made by team members focuses on creating exceptional guest experiences and supporting a collaborative, positive work culture.
