Food Service Worker/Cashier (Full Time And Part Time)
About The Position
Chartwells K12 is hiring full-time and part-time Food Service Worker/Cashiers at Farmington Public Schools in Farmington, Connecticut. The role combines cashiering with general food service work and includes maintaining sanitation standards in food preparation, service, and dining areas. The posted schedule is Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.; further details are provided during the interview. The fixed pay rate is $17.00 per hour. The position serves customers, handles sales and payments, prepares and stores food, and maintains clean and safe work and service areas. Because the work takes place in an educational facility, work may not be required during periods such as winter or summer breaks when food service needs decline or cease. Such periods without work are unpaid and considered a temporary layoff. Depending on business needs, associates may be asked to work year-round, potentially at a different location during breaks. Chartwells K12 provides dining programs for schools and describes its goal as helping students leave the cafeteria happier and healthier by serving food they enjoy. The company emphasizes inclusion, food, education, operations, culinary expertise, nutrition, wellness, and sustainability.
