You’ll also guide and train junior hostesses, working closely with Floor Supervisors to keep service seamless across busy shifts. This role suits someone with genuine hospitality flair, strong organizational skills, and experience in a fast-paced, guest-focused environment who’s ready to take on more responsibility within a growing restaurant group.
