Server

About the role

Touchmark at Fairway Village is Southwest Washington's premier retirement community, enriching the lives of residents and their families through exceptional service and quality housing. Dining Room Servers are responsible for serving meals in three of our five dining rooms, including our spacious and elegant Courtside dining room, where five-star service is our goal.

Servers greet guests, take orders, enter orders into our dining system, communicate with one another and the cooks and management staff, serve meals, bus tables, and perform side work such as folding linens, cleaning the dining rooms, and other dining-related tasks. We serve three meals—breakfast, lunch, and dinner—seven days a week, plus special events. Shifts start as early as 6am and generally conclude by 7:30pm. Short shifts of one or two meals are common, and schedules are posted three weeks in advance.

Servers may also be asked to serve special meals at events or work in our on-site coffee shop/Café. Most positions are part-time, though full-time positions (30+ hours per week) are available.
