Job Description

Le Pain Quotidien, which translates to "The Daily Bread," embodies more than just a place to eat. It is a cherished tradition where the simple act of sharing bread symbolizes connection, community, and a slower pace of life. The warm, fragrant loaves that come fresh out of the oven set the tone for an inviting atmosphere where friends and families gather around communal tables, sharing conversation and companionship. This Belgium-founded bakery-restaurant concept has become a global staple for those seeking quality, authenticity, and a meaningful dining experience.

Le Pain Quotidien is part of Convive Brands, a New York-based hospitality group known for building and operating high-quality restaurant brands. Convive oversees more than 50 locations nationwide under two flagship concepts: Le Pain Quotidien and Little Beet. As a patient, long-term investor-operator, Convive Brands focuses on sustainable growth through both organic opportunities and strategic acquisitions. Their commitment to quality and operational excellence has earned them a respected reputation in the restaurant and hospitality industry.

The open Dish Machine Operator position is an integral role within the team at Le Pain Quotidien. This role safeguards the cleanliness and functionality of the dishwashing area, ensuring all kitchenware, utensils, baskets, and crates meet the highest standards of sanitation. Along with operating dishwashing machines safely and efficiently, the operator helps maintain an organized and well-kept kitchen environment by assisting with inventory management, basic food prep, and general cleaning duties. The role demands attention to detail, a willingness to support the team through various tasks, and the ability to follow established cleaning protocols and safety standards.

This part-time or full-time hourly position offers competitive pay ranging between $14.00 and $18.00 per hour plus tips when eligible. It also includes enrollment in a company-contributed health coverage plan, accrued paid time off, a 401(k) plan with up to 4% match after 90 days, pre-tax commuter benefits (where applicable), and team member discounts across all Convive Brands establishments. The company prides itself on fostering an inclusive environment promoting diversity and equal opportunity across all aspects of employment, making this an excellent opportunity for individuals eager to grow within a supportive and reputable hospitality company.
