We're looking for a driven, creative, and experienced restaurant professional to launch and lead our lunch program at Social Cork Wine Bar. This multi-hat role includes cooking and serving during lunch hours, occasional closing shifts, and taking initiative with marketing and social media content to build awareness and traffic for our daytime offerings.

You’ll be the face and heart of the lunch program, balancing guest interaction with back-of-house execution. If you thrive in fast-paced, hands-on environments and love making things happen—this job is for you.

Restaurant Support

• Assist with occasional closing shifts (cleanup, cash out, prep for next day)

• Support FOH and BOH teams as needed on busier shifts

• Take ownership of special events, wine tastings, and promotions as assigned

What We’re Looking For:

• 2+ years of restaurant experience (FOH and/or BOH)

• Strong multitasking skills—comfortable cooking while handling guests

• Self-starter mentality; can take initiative without constant supervision

• Creative mindset for marketing and guest engagement

• Reliable, organized, and professional in communication

• Social media savvy (Instagram/Facebook/Reels/etc.)

• Comfortable working solo during slower lunch hours

Perks:

• Competitive hourly pay + tips

• Creative freedom in shaping a new lunch concept

• Wine knowledge and tasting opportunities
