Job description

Big personalities required at Liar Liar!

We are looking for an experienced Section Waiter to join our growing front-of-house team.

We’re a high-energy Japanese restaurant and late-night venue in Braeside, combining premium Japanese food, cocktails, sake, live entertainment and a service style that’s polished without being stiff.

We’re looking for someone who can own a section, build a connection with guests and confidently guide them through the Liar Liar experience.

THE ROLE

As a Section Waiter, you’ll be responsible for your section from the moment guests sit down until they leave.

  • Manage a busy section confidently and independently
  • Provide warm, energetic and professional table service
  • Know the menu and guide guests through their dining experience
  • Explain Japanese dishes, ingredients and styles of dining
  • Make confident food, cocktail, wine and sake recommendations
  • Upsell naturally and increase the guest experience — not just the bill
  • Control pacing and communicate effectively with the kitchen and pass
  • Maintain clean, polished and properly reset tables throughout service
  • Anticipate what your tables need before they have to ask
  • Work closely with runners, bartenders, hosts and management
  • Understand dietary requirements and allergies and never guess
  • Help us maintain our focus on 5-star guest experiences

WHO WE’R LOOKING FOR

We want hospitality people who genuinely enjoy looking after guests.

Ideally, you will have:

  • Previous experience managing your own section in a busy restaurant
  • Strong food and beverage knowledge
  • Confidence speaking with and engaging guests
  • Excellent communication and attention to detail
  • The ability to stay organised during high-volume services
  • A positive attitude and willingness to help the wider team
  • An interest in Japanese food, sake and culture

Japanese restaurant experience is highly regarded, but not essential. If you have strong restaurant experience and want to learn, we can teach you the product.

OUR EXPECTATIONS

At Liar Liar, our standards are simple:

  • 110% Guest Experience
  • Nothing subpar leaves your hands
  • No negativity. No politics.
  • Attack problems first
  • Bring energy

We don’t want order takers. We want waiters who can read a table, earn a guest’s trust and create an experience they’ll talk about afterwards.

WHY JOIN LIAR LIAR?

  • Exciting new Japanese restaurant and entertainment concept
  • High-energy, premium working environment
  • Strong opportunity to develop your Japanese food, sake and cocktail knowledge
  • Supportive FOH, bar and management team
  • Consistent hours available for the right people
  • Opportunity to grow as the venue and hospitality group continues to develop
  • Great team culture with a strong focus on service and performance
