Floor Manager: With this floor manager selection, we are looking to create an ever better and more productive work culture for our entire Team. It is our goal that we provide the most exceptional level of genuine hospitality and service for our Guests that we possibly can each and every day. That said we are looking for someone who is driven and aspires towards excellence day-in-day out within the service profession. It is imperative that our floor manager love people and have exceptional communication and organizational skills. A great manager pulls the best out of each person and understands that every person must be approached differently to obtain their best. A great manager must be able to do the following four activities extremely well: select a person, set expectations, motivate the person, and develop the person.
With that said, the responsibilities of our floor manager will be: selecting (hiring), motivating, interpersonal communication with FOH & BOH to create a great work culture, writing FOH schedules, training/teaching new hires (servers, hosts, bussers), creating policies, implementing policies, and ultimately creating the best service and hospitality possible. A great floor manager will understand how to delegate responsibility and get the best out of their people. If you believe you are the person for this job, we welcome your application.

Along with a cover letter, please explain anything else that you would like to about yourself and also include your resume.

Host: We are looking for a true professional.  Someone who understands and appreciates the difficult and delicate art of hosting.  Our hosts are not simply nice people who escort guests to their tables or take phone numbers or names down of those in line.  Rather, our hosts are an integral part in the success of the restaurant and the overall dining experience of our guests. They truly set the mood and are the first and last people that each guest will see while dining at Bamboo Sushi.  They control the entire pace, tempo, and energy of the restaurant each evening.  We are looking for someone who desires strongly to make people happy, is humble, calm under pressure, and looking to grow with our establishment.

Busser: At Bamboo Sushi we treat each position with the importance it deserves.  We know that without the best people in every position in the restaurant, the guest and the Team as a whole, lose out.  That said, we are looking for an amazing busser.  We want someone who has a passion to work quickly, efficiently, and diligently. A great busser knows that they are fundamental to a smooth flowing floor and a great guest experience.  This position requires a focused eye on cleanliness and multitasking.  If you are interested in working in a friendly, upbeat, and professional environment as well as being rewarded well for it, please contact us.
