Chef Steve is looking for Rock Star Spirit of Hospitality ambassadors to run our Cashier station in the Hometown Café!

The Hometown Café kitchen in the Smith County Memorial Hospital is both figuratively and literally open to the public, so all kitchen employees are expected to act as Spirit of Hospitality ambassadors, but as the person most “out front,” the Cashier is expected to embody that Spirit of Hospitality at every moment. This person is most apt to be the tip of the spear in terms of communication to and from the food and beverage department.  

Besides taking payments between 11:30 am and 3:00 pm, the Cashier is also expected to maintain sanitary conditions in the dining room area, on the customer side of the hot food and cold food line, on the salad bar, and on the drinks line. We all do dishes at the Hometown Café! Nobody escapes this task, not even me! The Cashier is expected to help in the dish room when other tasks are completed. Restocking the retail refrigerator, maintaining the coffee station, and all paper products are also part of the side duties involved with this position. There’s not much standing around time!

This position has steady hours, 8:00 am to 4:00 pm, weekdays only, with all holidays off, starting at $15 an hour with full benefits, including medical and a contributory retirement plan. However, the top side is open-ended! You make it what you want it to be! Some people have used this position as a springboard to work their way into the kitchen, where the action is at the Hometown Café! One person who started as a Cashier has entered the Certified Dietary Manager program and will sit the national board exam and become a CDM before the Summer! Smith County Memorial Hospital is dedicated to fully supporting your development as a professional. If you have the Rock Star motivation, I will give you the tools you need to move into any position. But just as a Cashier, you are an integral part of a dynamic team that is critically relevant to the medical team, the staff of the facility, patients in the hospital, and the community at large. You can be proud of the work you do in the Hometown Café!

If you are a Rock Star Spirit of Hospitality ambassador, consider joining our team! This position can be full or part-time. Open until filled. Apply online at: https://www.scmhks.org/about-us/nutrition-services/
