This position is a dual role at the club, offering experience at two highly interactive, guest-facing positions at the club. Organizational skills are developed and tested in the role of host, where reservation details are very important, and lines of walk-in customers must be greeted promptly and delegated to server sections properly to ensure proper flow in the dining room.
