Job Description

Regal Cinemas is one of the largest and most well-known movie theater chains in the United States, offering a premier entertainment experience to millions of guests each year. As a leading cinema company, Regal is committed to creating an inviting and enjoyable movie-going environment that combines state-of-the-art technology with exceptional customer service. The company operates numerous theaters across the nation, providing a wide array of film selections, snack options, and special promotions to enhance the overall guest experience. Known for its contemporary venues and welcoming atmosphere, Regal continuously strives to maintain high standards in both service and operational excellence. Team members at Regal play a crucial role in ensuring every guest leaves with a memorable and positive impression of the company, making it a great place to work for individuals passionate about hospitality and entertainment.

The Waitstaff position at Regal Cinemas is an essential role focused on delivering superior guest service in a clean and comfortable theater environment. This position may be classified as variable hour, part-time fixed, part-time regular, or full-time hourly depending on individual theater needs and employee availability. Waitstaff members are responsible for providing attentive and friendly service to guests, ensuring their orders are fulfilled efficiently and accurately while maintaining compliance with all relevant policies and legal requirements. Since many Regal theaters sell alcohol, waitstaff members who serve alcoholic beverages must be of legal age, complete all mandatory training programs including the Regal Responsible Beverage Server certification, and hold all necessary permits and licenses. These team members must also successfully pass background checks as part of the employment process.

Duties for the waitstaff include knowledge and enforcement of state and local laws regarding alcohol sales, accurate handling of money and inventory, promotion of the Regal Crown Club loyalty program, adherence to the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) rating system, and ensuring a safe and welcoming environment for all guests. Waitstaff must demonstrate excellent sales skills, including upselling and suggestive selling techniques, along with maintaining cleanliness and proper use of concession-related equipment and storerooms. Compliance with all food safety laws and theater policies including grooming and dress code standards is mandatory. As representatives of Regal Cinemas, waitstaff also bear the responsibility of reinforcing the company’s mission to deliver exceptional entertainment and hospitality. This role requires strong communication skills, reliability, and a genuine concern for guest satisfaction. Salary for this role is $18.00 per hour, and the position offers various benefits such as free movie passes, discounted concessions, and eligibility to participate in a 401(k) retirement plan with company match upon meeting specific conditions. Joining Regal Cinemas as a waitstaff member offers an engaging and dynamic work environment suitable for individuals seeking to grow within the hospitality and entertainment industry.
