Pour. Celebrate. Create Unforgettable Experiences.

Do you thrive in a fast-paced environment, love creating memorable guest experiences, and enjoy working at some of the most beautiful venues in the Pacific Northwest? Pearl Catering is looking for professional, experienced bartenders to join our growing events team.

From elegant weddings and black-tie galas to corporate events, private parties, and exclusive celebrations, no two events are the same. If you're dependable, polished, and take pride in delivering exceptional hospitality, we'd love to meet you.

What You'll Do

As an Event Bartender, you'll be responsible for much more than pouring drinks. You'll play a key role in creating an unforgettable guest experience by:

• Setting up and breaking down complete mobile bar stations using company equipment 
• Transporting yourself reliably to venues throughout Portland and surrounding communities 
• Providing warm, engaging, and professional service to every guest 
• Maintaining a clean, organized, and efficient bar throughout each event 
• Working independently while also collaborating with our event team 
• Following OLCC regulations and company service standards 
• Representing Pearl Catering with professionalism from arrival to the last guest served 

What We're Looking For

We're searching for bartenders who are:

• Experienced behind the bar in restaurants, catering, or events 
• Friendly, energetic, and passionate about hospitality 
• Professionally groomed with a polished appearance 
• Comfortable working upscale weddings, corporate functions, and private events 
• Self-motivated and able to work independently with minimal supervision 
• Reliable, punctual, and accountable 
• Excellent communicators with a positive attitude 
• Able to stay calm and organized during busy events 

Requirements

• Must have reliable personal transportation and be willing to travel throughout the Portland metro area and surrounding cities 
• Valid OLCC Service Permit (or ability to obtain before employment) 
• Ability to lift and move kegs, cases of beverages, and bar equipment 
• Comfortable standing and walking for extended periods 
• Available to work evenings, weekends, and holidays as events require 

Why Pearl Catering?

At Pearl Catering, we don't just serve drinks—we help create lifelong memories. You'll work at stunning venues, be part of incredible celebrations, and join a team that values professionalism, teamwork, and hospitality excellence.

Whether you're bartending an intimate wedding, a luxury corporate gala, or a large community celebration, you'll have the opportunity to work exciting events with a company known for delivering outstanding experiences.

Ready to Shake Things Up?

If you're an experienced bartender looking for flexible event work, exciting venues, and a team that takes pride in delivering exceptional service, we'd love to hear from you.
