Job Description

Dignity is a respected name in the senior living community, deeply committed to providing compassionate and respectful care to all its residents. At Dignity, the focus is not only on high-quality senior care but also on fostering a supportive and encouraging workplace for its team members. The company operates under the Sunrise Senior Living brand, a leader in the senior living industry that champions the quality of life for seniors by emphasizing dignity, respect, and kindness in every service offered. This commitment to excellence makes Dignity a preferred employer for those passionate about making a real difference in the lives of seniors.

As part of its dedicated team, Dignity is currently looking for a Dining Server who will play a crucial role in enhancing the dining experience for residents and guests. This role is integral to the community, as it combines the responsibilities of providing timely and professional meal service with the importance of creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The Dining Server position is perfect for individuals who take pride in their customer service skills and enjoy creating positive, meaningful connections with others. This role is not just about serving food; it’s about contributing to the overall comfort and happiness of senior residents, making their dining moments enjoyable and special.

In this position, you will be expected to take and deliver food and beverage orders accurately and efficiently, ensuring residents feel valued and well-cared for. Assisting residents with menu selections and providing clear, friendly descriptions of menu items will be key to helping them make satisfying dining choices. In addition, maintaining cleanliness and order in the dining room and bistro areas, as well as completing assigned side work and opening and closing duties, will be part of your daily responsibilities. Attending pre-meal meetings to stay informed about menu offerings and using Sunrise’s systems for precise order entry and meal delivery are essential components of the role.

Another critical aspect is adherence to food safety, sanitation, and infection control standards, which ensures that the dining environment meets health regulations and provides residents with safe meal options. The successful candidate will help build a hospitable environment by consistently delivering excellent service and fostering positive interactions with residents, their families, and fellow team members. The pay range for this position is between $17.00 and $21.25, reflecting competitive compensation for meaningful and impactful work. As a member of Dignity’s team, you will benefit from competitive pay, meaningful work, and ample opportunities for professional growth in a supportive and inclusive workplace.

Dignity Senior Living also prides itself on being an equal opportunity employer, adhering strictly to New York employment laws. This commitment underscores the company’s dedication to diversity and inclusion, ensuring that every employee is treated with fairness and respect. Joining Dignity means becoming part of a community where the focus is on quality, care, and respect both for the residents served and the team members who make a difference every day.
