About the Role: Responsibilities, Skills, and Requirements
Ever dreamed of being part of a brand-new restaurant in the heart of Dubai? Here’s your chance to join a fresh team on bustling Rolla Street, where every day brings something different. Whether you’re a seasoned pizza chef, a friendly face at the front desk, or just starting out and keen to learn behind the scenes, we’re looking for passionate people ready to help us create memorable dining experiences. If you’re already living in the Emirates and want to grow with a new venture, read on!
About the Company
We’re not just another place to eat—we’re building a community hub where guests feel at home and team members are more like family. Our founders believe great food should be matched by warm service and a vibrant atmosphere. Here, everyone pitches in, Friday kitchen laughs are guaranteed, and your ideas are truly welcome. With our doors opening soon on Rolla Street, we’re excited to bring a fresh energy to Dubai’s dining scene—and we hope you’ll help shape it.
What You’ll Be Doing
Depending on your role, you could be:
- Waiter/Waitress: Welcoming guests, sharing menu tips, and making sure everyone leaves with a smile (and maybe a dessert recommendation).
- Receptionist: Greeting diners, managing reservations, and keeping the front-of-house running smoother than a freshly polished countertop.
- Pizza Chef: Crafting dough, making signature pizzas, and ensuring each pie is cooked to perfection—classic Margherita or something wild, you’ll have creative input.
- Kitchen Assistant: Supporting the chefs with prep, plating, and keeping the kitchen a well-oiled machine (you’ll probably pick up a few chef secrets along the way).
- Juice Barista: Blending up fresh juices and smoothies, experimenting with new flavors, and serving up healthy smiles all day.
What You’ll Bring
Must-Haves:
- Currently residing in the UAE (applications from outside the Emirates can’t be considered, sorry!)
- A positive, team-focused attitude—our staff is our family.
- Willingness to work flexible hours, including evenings and weekends.
- For specialist roles (pizza chef, juice barista): relevant hands-on experience.
- Basic English communication skills.
Nice-to-Haves:
- Previous experience in restaurants, cafes, or hospitality.
- Additional language skills (Arabic, Hindi, Tagalog, etc.).
- A friendly sense of humor—never hurts in a busy restaurant!
Not sure you tick every box? We’d still love to hear from you.
