Waiter
Visa sponsorship
Hospitality · Christchurch, New Zealand · Full-Time · $25 - $29/hr · Visa: Employer sponsored
Central Christchurch diners come for modern Asian food in a room built around an aquarium, and the restaurant now wants four experienced waiters. The work is serving food and drinks according to the house selling system, with warmth and personality, and spotting what each guest needs.
It is a permanent full-time post of at least 30 hours weekly, and nights, weekends and the summer rush are part of the deal. Employer sponsorship runs through the restaurant's accredited employer status under the Accredited Employer Work Visa (AEWV) scheme, and it can help with the immigration process if required.
