WHAT THE SIDEKICK?
Zoku needs Sidekicks that easily connect to people, provide a warm welcome and help residents from A to B instead of being a traditional formal waiter. As a Sidekick intern, you will be our residents’ go-to person, connector and problem solver. One day you might be welcoming residents helping them to check in or out, the next you might rock the bar, showing off your barista skills, while helping out serving people in the Living Kitchen the day after that. The Sidekick intern reports to the Duty Manager on shift.

WHAT WILL YOU DO?
Whatever position you are filling for the day, all Sidekicks are responsible for being the first point of contact to anyone walking through Zoku’s doors. You are the glue that holds this place together and responsible for the social atmosphere within Zoku. You are responsible for creating memorable moments with your amazing Latte art, firm hand shakes (or high-5) or beer recommendations.
Above all else, our main mission is to make people happy, connected and cared about, as we are in the business of taking care of people. Below you will find a glimpse of what the main responsibilities are per position:
ROOMS
Here you are the first person guests run into, you are the one welcoming them with a handshake, taking care of them, checking them in/out, giving them the low down on all things good and answering any question that comes your way.
BAR
At the bar, you’re both a barista as well as a beer master, preparing all drinks and serving people while acting as a social connector among residents, guests and members.
LIVING KITCHEN
As the chef’s right hand you are there helping them run a smooth show, whether it be breakfast, lunch, brunch or dinner. You welcome, assist and connect with guests and ensure that every person that walks through the Living Kitchen leaves with a smile on their face.
MEETING & EVENTS
