Job Description

The Sycuan Band of the Kumeyaay Nation is a vibrant and historic community with deep roots that trace back many centuries. Originally a community of people who lived together through farming, hunting, and fishing to sustain themselves, the Sycuan Band has evolved over time into a sovereign tribe that governs its Reservation. Today, the Sycuan Tribe is not only a proud steward of its cultural heritage but also a dynamic business entity. It owns and operates a state-of-the-art Casino and a beautiful Golf Resort, along with various other business ventures in the San Diego region. These enterprises have helped the tribe grow economically while fostering a strong sense of community and cooperation among its members and employees.

Sycuan is much more than just a business; it is a community of people working together toward common goals. Whether you join the team in the Casino, at the Resort, or in the Tribal Government division, you become part of the extended Sycuan family. The tribe values collaboration, respect, and professionalism, fostering an inclusive environment where every member contributes to the overall success and well-being of the community.

The current opportunity is for a dedicated Kitchen Steward to join the Sycuan team. This hourly position plays a vital role in maintaining a clean, safe, and sanitary kitchen environment. As a Kitchen Steward, you will be responsible for ensuring that all dishes, pots, pans, and utensils are properly cleaned, sanitized, and stocked to support the operations of the Sycuan Casino and Resort kitchens. The role also includes routine cleaning duties, such as mopping and organizing storage areas, ensuring a hazard-free workspace for all kitchen staff.

This position demands a strong work ethic, good physical stamina for lifting and standing for extended periods, and the ability to work effectively with a diverse team. A valid Food Handlers Card and a California Driver's License in good standing are required. While prior dishwashing experience is desirable, it is not mandatory. The ideal candidate demonstrates excellent communication skills, professionalism, and the ability to follow verbal and written instructions accurately. By joining Sycuan, you become part of a vibrant community focused on delivering an exceptional experience to guests while preserving the culture and values of the Kumeyaay Nation.

Working as a Kitchen Steward at Sycuan offers an opportunity to contribute meaningfully to the hospitality and gaming industry, gain valuable experience, and grow within a supportive team environment. If you appreciate being part of a community committed to excellence and memorable guest experiences, Sycuan invites you to explore this rewarding career path and join their winning team.
