Saks Global Dishwasher

About Saks Global

A luxury hospitality employer or fine-dining restaurant delivering elevated service and exacting culinary standards. Typically part of an upscale hotel or independent Michelin-level kitchen, the organisation places emphasis on professionalism, teamwork and rigorous hygiene practices common across leading hospitality groups.

Role & Responsibilities

• Operate and maintain high-capacity industrial dishwashing machines and associated equipment, ensuring all serviceware, glassware and cookware meet the venue’s presentation and hygiene standards.
• Hand-wash and gently handle delicate or specialty pieces (china, crystal, silver) following established procedures.
• Maintain an immaculate dishroom: sort, stack and store cleaned items; manage drying racks; and ensure timely replenishment of service stations and kitchen workstations.
• Adhere to HACCP and local food-safety regulations, including correct chemical usage, temperature control and cross-contamination prevention.
• Collect and dispose of kitchen waste and recyclables, perform basic cleaning duties (floors, drains, grease traps) and support daily deep-clean schedules.
• Report equipment faults, breakages and supply shortages to the sous-chef or stewarding supervisor; assist with simple preventative maintenance and inventory of cleaning chemicals.
• Support the wider kitchen brigade during peak periods — unpacking deliveries, basic mise-en-place tasks and light portering as needed.

Qualifications

• Right to work in the job’s country and willingness to undergo background and food-safety screening where required.
• Basic food hygiene / HACCP certification preferred or willingness to obtain certification promptly.
• Ability to work rotating shifts, including early mornings, evenings, weekends and public holidays.
• Physical ability to stand for long periods and lift and carry loads (typically up to 20–25 kg) safely.
• Attention to detail and ability to follow written and verbal instructions precisely.

Skills

Experience

Entry-level role; previous experience as a kitchen porter, steward or dishwasher in a high-volume environment is advantageous but not mandatory. Employers typically prefer candidates with 6–12 months of kitchen experience or demonstrated ability to work in a fast-paced culinary setting.

Education

No formal academic credentials required. Basic literacy and numeracy sufficient; food-safety / hygiene training (e.g., local Food Hygiene Certificate, HACCP) strongly preferred.

Workplace

Culture

Teams operate to exacting service and cleanliness standards, with strong emphasis on teamwork, reliability and respect for hierarchy within the kitchen brigade. Staff development and cross-training are common in luxury kitchens, and discipline around health and safety is strictly observed.
