Vacancy
As a Team Leader at Le Pain Quotidien, you are responsible for everything in the restaurant running smoothly. When you have your first shift, you open the shop and make sure everything is set out on the terrace and the bread loaves are ready. You also make a schedule of who is going to do what that day. During the day, you serve your own area where you take care of your guests, or you stand behind the counter to sell bread and take away coffee. You help colleagues with questions or problems and make sure everyone takes a break on time. If you have a closing shift, you make sure that everything is cleaned up properly. You'll divide up the cleaning tasks and see to it that the restaurant is left tidy for the next day. You may also be responsible for counting at the cash register.
You will be working in a changing team that consists of Clerks in Charge, Shift leaders, Assistant Managers and Managers. Depending on the day and the predicted crowds, you will work with a varying number of colleagues.
If you enjoy working with people and being hospitable throughout the day, and find it challenging to step up and be resilient during busy times, then this is a job for you.
Working week
On an enjoyable working day, the weather is nice and you are working on the terrace. The guests are cheerful and you end the day with pleasant colleagues.
On a less enjoyable day, most guests arrive around the same time. Then it's a bit of a struggle, but together you get it done.

Working at Le Pain Quotidien Belgique
Le Pain Quotidien (French for 'daily bread') is a bakery-restaurant chain founded in 1990 by Alain Coumont. Alain was dissatisfied with the quality of bread in Brussels, so he started making his own sourdough bread using only four ingredients: water, flour, salt and time. Now Le Pain Quotidien has more than two hundred restaurants in fifteen countries, spread over three continents.
