Job Description

Red Lobster is a renowned family-owned seafood restaurant chain that has been delighting guests for over fifty years. Established with the vision to offer a special connection to seafood and coastal cuisine, Red Lobster has grown into a beloved brand with over 500 restaurant locations. Each restaurant embodies the founding passion of providing guests with memorable dining experiences, serving as a community hub where new friendships are formed and familiar faces are welcomed. As a company, Red Lobster prides itself on being more than just a place to eat – it is a part of the communities it serves and a place where both guests and team members feel at home. The company values inclusivity, diversity, and equal opportunity, fostering a welcoming workplace for all individuals regardless of age, race, color, religion, sex, national origin, sexual orientation, gender identity, disability, or veteran status.

We are currently seeking dedicated and motivated individuals to join our team as Dishwashers/Utility employees. This role is essential to maintaining the cleanliness and smooth operation of our restaurants, ensuring that every customer receives exceptional service in a safe and sanitary environment. The position offers weekly pay and competitive wages, with flexible scheduling designed to accommodate diverse availability. Employees benefit from options for medical, dental, and vision insurance starting at less than $10 per week, life insurance, short-term disability, and voluntary benefits to support personal needs. Additionally, team members have access to a 401(k) retirement savings plan with a company match available after one year of service, anniversary pay (subject to eligibility), discounted shift meals, and a 25% discount when dining as a guest. Red Lobster is committed to professional growth and offers training and career advancement opportunities to help team members build rewarding careers within the company.

The Dishwasher/Utility role involves a range of responsibilities crucial to restaurant operations. Key duties include cleaning and maintaining all restaurant areas, sanitizing dishware, flatware, glassware, pots, pans, and cooking utensils to the highest standards of hygiene, safely operating dishwashing equipment, and managing waste disposal throughout the facility. Beyond these tasks, the Dishwasher/Utility team member assists kitchen cooks with food preparation, such as making the signature Cheddar Bay biscuits, and performs other support functions as needed. Success in this role requires strong teamwork, attention to detail, a focus on guest satisfaction, and adherence to all cleanliness and safety protocols.

This physically demanding position requires team members to be able to bend, reach, stoop, lift up to 50 pounds safely, and remain on their feet for 8 to 12-hour shifts.

Red Lobster values employees who bring a positive attitude, strong work ethic, and a customer-first mindset to their roles.
