No banquet is complete without its bar and our hotel is no exception. As the Bartender be prepared to bring your ultra-friendly personality to bear while you’re taking orders, mixing drinks, and chatting up customers.

Here are just a few of the tasks you’ll be completing on a daily basis:

• Make and serve drinks to guests in a friendly, courteous and timely manner.
• Check identification of guests to verify age requirements for purchase of alcohol.
• Set up a portable bar in the function area
• Break down and clean bar thoroughly and return all supplies to their proper area.

Where You’ve Been:

We’re looking for someone with a High School diploma or equivalent, previous bartending experience, and a current Food Handler’s Permit. Most importantly, you’re someone who is capable of thinking on their feet and able to keep up in high‑pressure situations. If that sounds like you, go ahead and apply.

When You’re Here:

This probably goes without saying but you’ll be on your feet a lot. There will be occasions when you may be carrying/lifting up to 50 pounds, walking, bending/twisting, climbing stairs and working on slippery floors. You also must be able to accommodate varying schedules including nights, weekends and holidays. But wait, there’s a great upside: in exchange for your flexibility, we offer excellent pay, hotel discounts, F&B discounts and the opportunity to be part of an anything‑but‑standard growing hotel company.
