We're a renowned family-owned, biodynamic winery in North Canterbury, 45 minutes north of Christchurch. We have a Two Hat restaurant and cellar door at our Home vineyard, open for lunch and wine tastings.

We're looking for a passionate, wine-loving waiter to be a key member in our team. Must be able to work at least Saturdays and Sundays and if you would like full time hours, be keen to work in the vineyards to make up 40 hours a week.

We have a small and very fun team and are looking for the final team member for summer! We can offer experience at harvest 2-3 days a week (in March and April).

All the details.

The waiter role will involve:

  • Being a strong waiter and able to discuss wines for tastings and restaurant service
  • Working very occasionally on evening functions in summer. 
  • Being available during the summer's busy period - December to April. 
  • Hosting cellar door tastings or private winery tours.
  • The role could be part-time, provided weekends are covered.

The Benefits:

  • Extensive training about the wines, food and our vineyards and farming.
  • Great views! 
  • Day time hours and guaranteed 7+ hour shifts. 
  • Good remuneration.
  • Carpooling arranged and petrol allowance for those driving from Christchurch. 
  • Great training about natural wine and food.
  • A fun place to work! 
  • A small team to work with.
  • We can help with staff carpooling if you live in Christchurch, provided you can sometimes drive.

About you:

  • Some good experience. 
  • Smart and fun. 

This is a rare and exciting opportunity.
