With a mission grounded in delivering the highest quality food and bar beverages along with legendary guest service, Kennedy Concepts prides itself on maintaining a clean and comfortable environment highlighted by an energetic ambiance. The company values strong family-like relationships among team members and guests alike, recognizing that the foundation of success comes from cultivating a capable team committed to excellence. Kennedy Concepts understands the importance of consistently delivering exceptional dining experiences that guests will cherish and remember, fostering loyalty and a positive reputation in the hospitality industry.

The role offered is a Dishwashing position, essential for the smooth operation of the restaurant's back of house. This role is responsible for ensuring the cleanliness and organization of all tableware, pots, pans, and cooking equipment, which directly impacts food safety and the overall guest experience. As a Dishwasher at Kennedy Concepts, you will be integral in supporting the kitchen and dining areas by maintaining an adequate supply of sanitized dishware and utensils necessary for daily operations.

Working in this position requires diligence and attention to detail. You will operate the dish machine, ensuring it is loaded, running, and unloaded properly while maintaining its cleanliness and reporting any issues immediately. Monitoring water temperature to guarantee a sanitary wash cycle will be a key responsibility. Alongside washing and storing items, you will keep the dish room clean and organized while managing supplies such as detergents and cleaning agents. Handling tableware carefully to prevent breakage and loss is vital, as is proper disposal of dish room trash according to designated schedules.

In addition to dedicated dishwashing tasks, the role expects flexibility to assist in other aspects of restaurant operations as directed by management to maintain smooth and efficient service. The work environment will be hot, wet, humid, and at times loud, requiring physical stamina and the ability to work for extended periods in a standing position. Candidates must be capable of lifting heavy objects weighing up to 60 pounds multiple times per shift, requiring physical strength and endurance.

This opportunity is ideal for individuals seeking entry into the restaurant and hospitality industry with no prior experience required. Kennedy Concepts invests in its team by fostering a supportive and respectful workplace culture where employees are treated like family. Joining as a Dishwasher provides a foundational stepping stone towards growth within the company and the broader hospitality field. This role is crucial for guests to have a seamless and enjoyable dining experience through proper sanitation and kitchen efficiency. If you are ready to contribute to a team-focused environment and play a key behind-the-scenes role in a thriving restaurant group, this position at Kennedy Concepts is a promising opportunity to start or continue your career.
