Come for the Job, Stay for the People
At SoBu Social Corner, we’re building a community around incredible food and a standout bar program. Whether it’s a high-energy breakfast buffet, a lunch or a vibrant dinner service, we provide hospitality that is professional, warm, and intentional. We’re looking for social, "people-person" types who can transition seamlessly from the daytime hustle to the evening glow.
- Be the Host: You’re the face of the experience! From the first "Hello" to the final "See you next time," you’ll make sure our guests feel like the VIPs they are.
- Share the Love: Use your menu knowledge to guide guests toward their new favorite dish. We’re all about storytelling, not just order-taking.
- Keep the Flow: Work alongside a team that actually has your back. We’re a "high-five and hustle" kind of crew.
- Read the Room: Whether it's a first date or a boisterous birthday, you’ll adapt your style to match the energy of the table.
What We’re Looking For
- A Friendly Face: You have a natural warmth and a genuine love for hospitality.
- A Bit of Experience: You’ve spent 1–2 years in a full-service restaurant and feel comfortable in a fast-paced environment.
- The Essentials: You have your Serving It Right (or are ready to get it!) and a flexible schedule for evenings and weekends.
- Team Players: You believe that no task is "beneath" you—we all help clear tables and run drinks here.
The Good Stuff (Benefits)
- Real Money: Competitive hourly pay + industry-leading tips in Burnaby.
- Great Food: Enjoy 50% off our menu on and off shift.
- A Culture That Cares: We will host regular staff socials and believe that work should be fun.
