Job Description

This job opportunity is with a restaurant owned and operated by an independent franchisee of Del Taco, a popular fast-food chain known for its fresh, prepared-to-order Mexican food. Unlike corporate positions, this role is directly employed by the independent franchisee rather than Del Taco LLC, meaning all employment matters such as hiring, wages, supervision, and work schedules are managed locally by the franchise owner. This model supports a dynamic working environment where team members receive personalized attention and development suited to their specific location and community. The restaurant is located at 585 N. Redwood Road, North Salt Lake, UT 84054, and is proud to maintain a high standard of food quality, customer service, and cleanliness.

The Team Member position is integral to our franchise's success, emphasizing professionalism, teamwork, and a commitment to creating an outstanding guest experience. As a Team Member, you will play a crucial role in fostering a positive and exciting culture within the restaurant, contributing to an environment that is both rewarding and optimistic. Your interactions with guests, your adherence to cleanliness standards, and your product knowledge will collectively enhance the reputation of our restaurant. The job requires vigilance in upholding food safety and sanitation guidelines, ensuring all orders are accurately processed using the point of sale system, and maintaining a friendly and helpful demeanor throughout your shift. This role offers a valuable opportunity for individuals who enjoy working in a fast-paced setting, possess strong organizational skills, and thrive in team-oriented environments.

You will be expected to understand the menu thoroughly and communicate effectively with guests to enhance their dining experience. The position also demands physical stamina, as it requires standing and walking for most of the shift along with some lifting responsibilities. This dynamic role offers entry-level candidates a chance to grow within the hospitality sector while contributing significantly to the guest service operations. The franchisee supports all employees in a respectful, equitable manner, ensuring compliance with federal and state employment laws and fostering a workplace free of discrimination and harassment. This role is perfect for candidates who are enthusiastic, responsible, and dedicated to delivering exceptional experiences consistently.
