FOOD RUNNER

Panama 66 features all local taps, California wine and a lively craft cocktail program. The food is all scratch made and mostly locally sourced.

We believe that the greatest factor in the success of a business is the quality of its people. We strive to attract, hire, and train an extraordinary staff that is notable for its friendliness, intelligence, work ethic, empathy, and self-awareness.

Please read all requirements and directions for applying.

Runners MUST have experience running food in a busy establishment. Runners do a host of jobs: bus, run food, greet and host, run the register, and therefore are able to talk about food thoroughly and intelligently. The restaurant is all outdoors and so it's imperative you can handle the heat, the sun, the chilly and a busy floor. We also do a lot of special events, weddings, and parties and so if you have catering service experience, all the better. But this is not strictly that sort of job. Bonus points if you speak a foreign language! Tourists... we got 'em!

You must be able to work weekends and evenings. It's imperative you are outgoing, friendly, service-minded, responsible, hard working and able to walk a lot of steps every shift.

Our staff is currently making $17 an hour plus tips that average $18-26 more an hour, for a total of $33-$43 an hour.

To apply, please put the word RUNNER in the subject line and email us your resume AND a short email or letter that tells us a little about you and why you think this is the right job for you to jobs@panama66.com
