Nando’s South Africa invites suitably qualified applicants to apply for Team Member vacancies at various locations. These are permanent part-time positions for job seekers who have Matric and are interested in working in the restaurant and fast-food industry. The vacancies were posted on 28 September 2026, and the closing date for applications is 3 October 2026.
If you enjoy working with people, have an interest in food and cooking, and can handle a busy working environment, the Nando’s Team Member opportunity may be worth considering. Successful applicants can work in different areas of the restaurant, depending on the position available and the needs of the business.
Nando’s restaurants depend on different team members to make sure customers receive their food and service properly.
A Team Member may work in the kitchen, at the till, around the grill or in the dining area. Each position has its own duties, but all team members work together to keep the restaurant running smoothly.
The available areas include:
The exact role you may be placed in can depend on the needs of the restaurant and your suitability for the position.
The Front Griller works around the grill and is involved in preparing chicken.
This position requires attention to detail because food needs to be prepared according to the required procedures.
Applicants interested in this role should have an interest in cooking and grilling and should be comfortable working in a busy kitchen environment.
The Back Griller is responsible for grilling other products served by the restaurant.
Like the Front Griller position, this role requires the employee to follow instructions and food preparation procedures carefully.
The restaurant can become busy, so you should be able to work at a good pace while still paying attention to the work.
The Prepper helps prepare products and ingredients before they are needed by the grillers.
This is an important part of the restaurant because food preparation needs to be done properly and on time.
A Prepper should be organised, careful and able to follow the required guidelines.
Cashiers deal directly with customers.
The role includes taking customer orders and handling cash and other payments.
Good communication is important because you will speak to customers throughout your shift.
Cashiers also need to pay attention when processing orders and payments.
The Coordinator helps make sure customer orders are prepared correctly and are ready to be given to customers.
This position requires attention to detail because the Coordinator needs to check that orders are complete and correct.
Good teamwork is also important because the Coordinator works with other members of the restaurant team.
Waiters assist customers who are eating in the restaurant.
They help make sure customers receive their food and that their orders reach the correct table.
This position involves regular interaction with customers, so applicants should enjoy working with people and providing good service.
Applicants must meet the requirements listed for the Team Member opportunity.
The main requirements include:
Applicants should understand that restaurant work can be physically demanding. You may spend much of your shift standing, walking around the restaurant and completing different tasks.
Restaurants can become very busy, especially during lunch, dinner, weekends and public holidays.
For this reason, Nando’s is looking for applicants who can work under pressure without losing focus.
You may need to deal with several tasks during the same shift. It is important to remain calm, follow the correct procedures and continue providing good service to customers.
Attention to detail is also important. Whether you are preparing food, taking orders or checking customer meals, you need to make sure that you complete your duties correctly.
The Nando’s Team Member vacancies are permanent part-time positions.
