Job description

Job Title: Bartender

Location: Sticks'n'Sushi Glasgow

Calling Strange Fish of [PlaceName]. You know who you are, the kind of person who lives to see others happy. You may have walked a similar path before, but your spirit is ready for a role on our bar, where many things are happening at the same time. So, we hope you’re up for bringing your spark and big smile to the newest addition to the Sticks ‘n’ Sushi team.

Are you

• A confident individual who thrives in a buzzing, fast-paced environment of excellence?
• Adaptable and able to stay calm and move with change without letting standards drop?
• An intuitive and caring relationship builder, taking pride in being nice and working hard?
• A natural listener, who supports with a big smile and a small ego?
• Culturally curious and hungry to learn more about our Danish ’n’ Japanese roots?

What you’ll be doing at Sticks ’n’ Sushi

• Ensure our bar service standards are carried out at the highest level and always prioritise the needs of the guests.
• Ensure that standards of cleanliness are maintained throughout the bar and restaurant
• Continuously develop knowledge of our new products and concepts
• You’ll be the face of our values, culture and brand, helping our Guests to leave the real world behind for a little while.
• You’ll bring passion, energy, and personality to the bar - every shift!
• You will learn about Danish & Japanese culture, ingredients, and service style - so when you recommend a drink, pour sake, or guide the guest through our menu, your focus is on mastering your craft.

What you’ll bring to us

• Ideally, you already have experience in a busy bar, knowing how to give great service and make people happy.
• You are a spark of energy – full of passion for hospitality. (And probably say “Ja tak” more than once a day!)
• You love learning, keeping your hands busy. You flow like water - calm under pressure.
• You bring kindness, respect, and live the “big smile, small ego” way.
• Your team spirit will support your fellow Strange Fishes. We work and laugh in togetherness.

How we will support your journey with us

We want you to grow with us, so through our Lead ‘n’ Learn academy, you can keep learning and developing your skills and challenge your responsibilities (and your healthy risk-taking). Our training is structured to both help you shine and create memories, in your role and beyond.

The benefits that go beyond the day to day

Yes, we work hard. But we also laugh, learn, and enjoy the ride. We want all our Strange Fish to be part of building something meaningful and to feel involved in making Sticks ‘n’ Sushi a little bit better every day. A place where everyone belongs and is represented. As well as our Sticks ‘n’ Sushi language lessons (so you can speak our (slightly odd) hosting lingo in no time), you’ll enjoy:

• Staff food (very, very delicious) every shift.
• 50% discount across all our restaurants, everywhere (yes – and drinks.)
• Generous referral bonus schemes.
• Employee assistance and wellbeing support.
• Financial wellbeing support.
• Employee discounts – retail and high street.
• Team events, unforgettable team parties & awards.

Ready to jump in?

At Sticks ’n’ Sushi, we welcome everyone, so we can’t wait to hear about the Strange Fish that you are. If your spark lights ours, we’ll invite you for a chat so we can meet you properly – and then if it really feels right, we’ll dive straight in together.

That’s us.
