About Hama Hama

Family owned and operated for six generations, we’re a shellfish and timber farm located on the eastern slopes of the Olympic Peninsula.

The Oyster Saloon is located a stone’s throw from our oyster farm, and showcases our oysters and clams alongside other seasonal PNW seafood. Our goal is to offer thoughtful preparations for world-class ingredients in a one-of-a-kind dining environment. It’s a busy and physical job, but one with no late nights (we usually close at 5 pm) and plenty of fresh air and happy people.

We’re hiring:

  • Experienced Line Cooks
  • Host
  • Expo
  • Oyster Shucker
  • Busser/Runner/Dishwashers

Requirements include:

  • Ability to stand for hours at a time, work in an outdoor environment, work around common kitchen chemicals and allergens such as wheat and shellfish, ability to walk several miles a day on uneven or wet surfaces, ability to perform tasks that involve bending, stooping, shucking, lifting and handling up to 50 lb without difficulty
  • Reliable attendance
  • Willingness to work weekends and holidays
  • Friendly attitude and professional demeanor
  • Communicate positively with customers and team members
