What a super star. Kez helped us host a 50th anniversary party at home. She did an amazing job with helping and serving catering, restocking drinks, cleaning rubbish, whilst running up and down a very steep hill. Professional and thoughtful, and a good communicator.

Airport West VIC 3042, Australia

23rd Mar 2026

We’ve recently converted our warehouse into a small event venue and are looking for a couple of roaming staff to join our team. The role is hands-on and varies depending on the event, but generally includes waitressing, clearing and resetting buffet tables, collecting plates and glasses, washing up, and helping out wherever needed on the day. Most of our events are buffet-style, so we’re really looking for reliable, proactive people who can keep things tidy, look after guests, and help everything run smoothly behind the scenes. Ideally Melbourne-based, with ongoing work available and opportunities to also assist with our event styling jobs when needed. Let me know if this sounds like something you’d be interested in. First shift Saturday 28 March 7:30pm - 12:30am 27ph

Very hardworking and reliable, loved there work.

Birthday Event waiter/helper

$200

Fitzroy North VIC, Australia

21st Jan 2026

Hi there! I’m looking for a friendly, reliable waiter to help out at a relaxed birthday event so the host can actually enjoy the day. Sunday 8 Feb from 10am to 2pm This is a casual morning/early afternoon birthday with around 45 guests, arriving gradually rather than all at once. Most guests will be helping themselves, so this role is really about being an extra pair of hands. What you’ll be doing: • Topping up drinks • Providing clean glasses for new arrivals • Laying out pre-cooked food (no cooking required) • Light tidying / general help as needed Nothing formal or high-pressure — just helping the event flow smoothly. What I’m looking for: • Someone friendly, approachable, and proactive • Some experience in hospitality or event work • Comfortable in a relaxed, social environment • LGBTQIA+ friendly is an absolute must 🌈 • Happy to jump in and help where needed The vibe: Very casual, welcoming, and inclusive. This is not a stuffy waiter role — more “helpful legend who keeps things running.” If this sounds like you, I’d love to hear from you. Please tell me a bit about your experience and availability.

Vered was unbelievably helpful, truly helped my event run smoothly and I couldn’t recommend her higher. Truly, the best at what she does.
