Job description

For weary travelers, you’re more than a bartender. You’re a friendly face at the end of a long flight or a stressful day. In addition to expertly mixing cocktails and serving up ice-cold drafts, you are an ambassador for the Hotel.

Sure, you will be preparing drinks, taking orders, and serving plates of deliciousness. But more than that, you’ll leverage your food and beverage expertise along with your knowledge of the city to provide our guests with an unforgettable experience.

Here are some typical responsibilities during a shift:

1. Demonstrate and promote a thorough knowledge of food and beverage products, menus, and promotions.
2. Craft creative and tasty drinks.
3. Know when to engage with guests and when to remain discreet.
4. Serve snacks or food items to guests seated at the bar.

Qualifications:

- High School diploma or equivalent

- Previous bartending experience

- Current Food Handler’s Permit

- Ability to think quickly and work calmly under pressure

Ideal candidates will be comfortable working on their feet, lifting up to 25 pounds, walking, bending, twisting, and climbing stairs. Since bar shifts often occur at night, flexibility to work weekends is required. In return, we offer excellent pay, hotel discounts, and the chance to be part of a dynamic, growing hotel company.
