Job Description

Stonebridge is a well-established company known for its commitment to providing exceptional hospitality services in a variety of settings including dining establishments, lounges, and banquet functions. The company prides itself on maintaining high standards of food and beverage quality while delivering superior guest service. Located in Brooklyn, New York, Stonebridge offers employment opportunities that accommodate part-time, full-time, and seasonal work arrangements, allowing flexibility for a diverse workforce. Their focus on an inclusive and professional work environment is reflected in their equal employment opportunity policies and dedication to accommodating individuals with disabilities. The pay range for the Restaurant Server position is between $10 and $12 per hour, exclusive of tips or gratuity, which aligns competitively with the hospitality industry standards in the Brooklyn area.

The Restaurant Server role at Stonebridge is pivotal in creating a welcoming and enjoyable dining experience for all guests. Serving as the frontline representative of the establishment, servers are responsible for greeting guests promptly and professionally, taking orders with attention to detail, and recommending menu items including wine selections to enhance the dining experience. Precision in relaying food and beverage orders to the kitchen and bar ensures guests receive quality service without delay. Servers are also expected to anticipate additional guest needs by being observant and responsive throughout their visit, thereby providing timely and personal service.

In addition to direct guest interactions, the Restaurant Server plays a crucial role in maintaining the cleanliness and readiness of the dining environment by clearing and resetting tables, completing assigned side work, and ensuring all work and storage areas meet cleanliness standards. Compliance with Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) for safety is mandatory to uphold workplace safety standards. Servers may also assist with the setup and refreshment of function rooms during events, requiring flexibility and teamwork.

Working at Stonebridge involves a dynamic and physically active environment predominantly indoors, with some exposure to temperature variations. Employees are expected to stand and walk for extended periods and lift and carry objects such as trays and dishes, which necessitates physical stamina and strength. Effective communication skills, basic arithmetic abilities for handling transactions, and the capacity to work flexible hours including nights, weekends, and holidays, are essential qualifications for this role.

Stonebridge fosters a supportive workplace culture through comprehensive benefits such as medical, dental, and vision insurance, paid time off, 401(k) matching, wellness programs, life and disability coverage, savings accounts, tuition assistance, and travel and lodging perks. These benefits complement the company's dedication to employee well-being and professional growth. This comprehensive approach to employee support and growth opportunities makes a position at Stonebridge particularly appealing for those seeking a career in hospitality within the vibrant Brooklyn, New York community.
