If you have worked a sandwich line, a prep station, or a dish pit and you take pride in doing it well - and you want a part-time schedule that fits around school, family, or a primary job - read on.

What You'll Own on Each Shift

You are part of the Heart of the House. The job:

Make the food right. Prepare items to McAlister's recipe and portion standards. Read tickets accurately. Move at the pace the rush requires without sacrificing the standard. The guest experience starts with what comes off your station.

Hold the standard. Clean station, organized storage, sharp uniform, food safety practices followed without shortcuts. You catch what needs to be done before someone has to ask. You report safety concerns to management directly and immediately. The standard doesn't change when the tickets stack up - that's what makes a strong BOH team member.

Work as one kitchen. Your station is your responsibility, but the line is a team. You back up other stations when they're slammed. You communicate clearly with FOH so tickets go out fast and right. You ask for help when you need it and you give it when you can.

Show up ready. A part-time shift is short, which means there's no warm-up period. You arrive on time, in uniform, and ready to work the moment you clock in.

What We're Looking For

• Reliable, on-time attendance - the team depends on you being there
• Genuine pride in food quality and attention to detail
