About this position

About ASH

ASH Hotels designs, develops, owns and operates a very special collection of properties. In our world, a hotel is much more than a destination to meet, dine, or sleep. Rather, it is a dynamic site of imagery and emotions, interactions and sensations manifesting within the walls of a beautifully restored local legend - a living movie set. An ASH hotel is a connection to the past and a beacon for the future, layered in nuanced storytelling that invites exploration time and again.

Opening Fall 2026, our jewel box of a hotel stands on the iconic Venice Beach boardwalk, a lively stretch of California culture where a seemingly endless beach meets the dreams and schemes of this great city. Venice, CA was born from a grand vision, the ancient and hauntingly beautiful most serene republic reborn for pleasure on the wild pacific coast, where the spirit of spectacle, entertainment, and countercultural pursuits are as palpable as the salty air.

The Opportunity

We are seeking a Service Bartender to bring our bar and café program to life. This role crafts cocktails, pours wine and beer, and also delivers full food service, all while setting the vibe for guests. They are responsible for preparing beverages and food to spec, engaging guests with genuine hospitality, and keeping the bar and dining area running smoothly.

The ideal candidate is part craftsperson, part host, and part server. They take pride in a perfectly balanced cocktail. They also understand that the drink is only part of the job, and that guiding a guest through the food menu with the same care matters just as much.

They read the room instinctively. They know when a guest wants conversation and when they want to be left alone with their book. They keep multiple drink orders, food orders, tabs, and conversations moving without missing a beat. Confident behind the bar during a Friday night rush, they also bring the operational discipline to manage pours, plate food to standard, track inventory, and uphold responsible service with equal care.

Key Responsibilities

• Deliver full food and beverage service from order to table, ensuring accurate timing and course sequencing between kitchen and bar
• Communicate food allergies, modifications, and special requests clearly to kitchen staff via POS or verbally
• Maintain working knowledge of the full food menu, including ingredients, preparationmethods, and allergen information, to confidently answer guest questions
• Follow proper food handling, storage, and temperature protocols in accordance with

health department standards
