BARBACK

Who we are:

We love what we do and what we do is important! We believe that everyone should leave feeling better – this means not just our guests, but also our teammates. Everyone should go home feeling better because they learned something new, or had fun working that day. Therefore, we hire unique individuals who work together to create amazing experiences for our guests. We recognize that every member of the team contributes to the success of the whole hotel. No-one is more important than anyone else, and unless we are in it together, we can’t create that special experience for our guest.

Your mission:

Should you decide to accept it…

Are you an aspiring bartender? If your answer is yes and you love working behind the bar and are still learning the art of mixology, then this is the perfect opportunity for you. You will support the beverage operation of the outlet through timely bussing and resetting of the bar, running food and beverage items while engaging in polite, responsive and timely interaction with guests and teammates including basic menu descriptions.

If you can communicate, coordinate and work well with other teammates in serving our guests, then you will have a successful career with us. Most of all, we want you to have FUN since you will play a huge role in creating that memorable guest experience!
