Role summary
Written by MyIslandJob from the job title and employer. See the employer's page for the full description.
The Steward supports kitchen and food-and-beverage operations by washing dishes, pots, pans, utensils, and equipment; maintaining cleanliness in back-of-house areas; removing waste; restocking supplies; and following sanitation and safety procedures. Candidates should be dependable, physically able to stand for extended periods, lift and carry supplies, work efficiently in a fast-paced environment, and maintain high standards of cleanliness. Previous stewarding, dishwashing, or hospitality experience is helpful but may not be required. The role requires flexibility to work temporary shifts, including weekends, holidays, early mornings, evenings, and busy resort periods, while contributing positively to Four Seasons service standards.
Can I work in Hawaii?
Never pay anyone for a visa or a job offer. A real employer pays the permit costs and never asks you for money.
How it works
How it works: No ordinary visa for hotel jobs; a J-1 traineeship of up to 12 months is the realistic route.
Official source: USCIS: working in the United States. Checked November 2026.
