Job Description

Sodexo is a leading global food services and facilities management company dedicated to improving the quality of life for those it serves. With a broad presence worldwide, Sodexo partners with clients across various industries to provide comprehensive and integrated solutions in food service, catering, and facility operations. The company is known for its commitment to employee growth, workplace diversity, and creating inclusive environments where individuals feel valued and respected. Sodexo's mission emphasizes creating a better everyday experience for all its stakeholders while contributing positively to social, economic, and environmental progress in local communities.

At Sodexo, the role of Dishwasher is crucial to maintaining the smooth functioning of kitchen operations. This full-time position, located at the Wilmington Trust Corporation HQ in Wilmington, offers weekday shifts with specific hours that will be discussed during the interview process. The hourly pay range for this role is $16.00 to $16.50, providing a stable income opportunity for candidates. As a Dishwasher, you will play an essential role in supporting both kitchen and facility operations by ensuring cleanliness, sanitation, and organization throughout food production and service areas. Your tasks will encompass washing dishes either by hand or using dishwashing machines, cleaning and sanitizing worktables, walls, refrigerators, and meat blocks, as well as sweeping, mopping, and vacuuming floors.

In addition to maintaining hygiene standards, the position requires removing trash and garbage to designated disposal areas and cleaning equipment using specific chemicals to meet strict sanitary requirements. You will also be responsible for re-stocking supplies such as soap, paper towels, and cleaning materials, which contributes to the overall efficiency and safety of the food service environment. Duties may vary depending on client requirements or business needs, and additional responsibilities may be assigned accordingly.

This role demands physical stamina as it involves significant walking or other means of mobility, along with the ability to stand or walk for extended periods, sometimes exceeding eight hours per shift. Physical activities like reaching, bending, stooping, pushing, pulling, and lifting up to 35 pounds regularly and occasionally up to 50 pounds are also part of the job. Punctuality and consistent attendance for scheduled shifts are important attributes for success in this position.

Sodexo offers a flexible and supportive work environment that respects employees' lives outside of work, ensuring that staff members can be home for their most important moments. The company provides access to ongoing training, development, and advancement opportunities aimed at helping you turn your job into a long-term career. Additionally, a full array of benefits supports the well-being of employees and their families, including paid time off, holidays, medical, dental, vision, tuition reimbursement, 401k retirement plans, employee discount programs, and more. Some locations may also offer site-specific perks such as free shift meals, uniforms, safety shoes, public transportation assistance, or parking support.

Working at Sodexo means being part of a global team that values individuality and encourages employees to bring their authentic selves to work. The organization fosters a culture of belonging and inclusivity, supporting equal employment opportunities for all qualified individuals without discrimination. If you are seeking a role that offers stability, growth, and a meaningful contribution to the experiences of those served by Sodexo, this Dishwasher position presents an excellent opportunity to join a reputable company with a proven commitment to employee satisfaction and community impact.
