Job Description
Le Pain Quotidien, which means 'the daily bread,' is a bakery-café concept that emphasizes the importance of bread not just as sustenance but as a way of life. The brand creates an environment where warm, fragrant loaves are baked fresh daily and served in a communal setting where friends and family gather to share the timeless tradition of breaking bread together. This unique approach fosters a warm, welcoming ambiance filled with the pleasant hum of conversation and a slower, more meaningful dining experience.
Operated by Convive Brands, a New York-based hospitality group, Le Pain Quotidien is part of a family of high-quality restaurant brands. Convive Brands manages over 50 restaurants across the United States under two main concepts: Le Pain Quotidien and Little Beet. The company is a patient, long-term investor-operator committed to building significant enterprise value through both organic growth and strategic acquisitions.
The role offered at Le Pain Quotidien is ideal for individuals who thrive in a dynamic, guest-centered environment and appreciate the finer details of hospitality. This position involves providing friendly, attentive service to guests throughout their visit, ensuring a seamless dining experience that reflects the brand’s values. Employees are expected to possess a thorough knowledge of the menu, including breads, pastries, beverages, and retail items, and to skillfully manage food and beverage orders using the POS system.
Team members play a crucial role in maintaining the cleanliness and organization of the restaurant environment, adhering to established procedures and checklists to uphold health and safety standards. The position also offers opportunities to enhance skills through cross-training in various dining room and retail roles, fostering personal growth and versatility.
Le Pain Quotidien values empathy and effective communication, particularly when addressing guest concerns, encouraging team members to handle situations thoughtfully or escalate them to management when necessary. Working at Le Pain Quotidien also involves responsibilities such as money handling in compliance with company policies, completion of opening and closing procedures, and assistance with outdoor space maintenance where applicable.
Offering an hourly pay rate beginning at $17.87, plus tips where eligible, this position provides a competitive wage within the hospitality industry. Benefits include company-contributed health coverage, accrued paid time off, a 401(k) plan with up to 4% match after 90 days, pre-tax commuter benefits in applicable states, and team member discounts across all Convive Brands' establishments.
Convive Brands is an Equal Opportunity Employer dedicated to fostering a diverse and inclusive workforce, ensuring all employees have a welcoming and supportive environment where they can excel. This opportunity is perfect for candidates looking to build a career in hospitality with a reputable and growing brand committed to quality and community.
