Wind Creek Hospitality is hiring a full-time Bartender - VIP Lounge for its Bethlehem, Pennsylvania property. The bartender works in the VIP Lounge within the Food & Beverage department. The role prepares alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks, takes beverage and food orders, handles guest transactions, and maintains service standards during varied shifts that include weekends and holidays. The listing requires at least three years of bartender experience in an upscale or high-volume food and beverage establishment.

Local job openings in Bethlehem include this hospitality position. The role requires applicants to be at least 18 years old, hold a high school diploma or equivalent, and provide proof of authorization to work in the United States. It also requires a Pennsylvania Responsible Alcohol Management Program card and may require a Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board license.

The bartender takes beverage and food orders and prepares drinks according to department specifications. The work includes specialty drinks, wine, fine spirits, and the equipment used for beverage preparation. Prompt delivery, accurate order handling, and guest service are part of each service period.

Cash and credit transactions require accurate change and basic arithmetic. The bartender keeps beverage preparation areas aligned with Pennsylvania Health Codes and follows Pennsylvania liquor laws. The role also includes learning Wind Creek services, property features, attractions, promotions, and special events so guest questions receive accurate answers.

Wind Creek Hospitality requires the bartender to follow customer-service standards, departmental policies, property policies, safety standards, and applicable Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board rules. The job includes paperwork completed to Wind Creek and PGCB standards, along with proper use of bar equipment, tools, and operating systems.

Responsible alcohol service is part of the position. The bartender must follow rules against serving minors or intoxicated persons and understand the property's Compulsive and Problem Gambling Plan. Pennsylvania's RAMP certification process covers training for alcohol-service staff.

The position requires three years of bartending experience in an upscale or high-volume food and beverage operation. Strong guest-service skills, effective spoken and written English, interpersonal ability, attention to detail, and a neat professional appearance are part of the stated qualifications. The employer also requires the ability to receive direction, review work, communicate with coworkers, and handle stressful client situations tactfully.

The bartender stands, stretches, bends, and kneels for prolonged periods and works indoors and outdoors. The job requires the ability to lift or carry at least 50 pounds without assistance. Noise, dust, cigarette smoke, and computer-screen fatigue are listed environmental factors, and the role requires work under pressure while meeting deadlines.

Bethlehem is in Northampton County in eastern Pennsylvania. Wind Creek Hospitality's Bethlehem property operates within a casino and hospitality setting, so the VIP Lounge bartender works around guest services, promotions, special events, and gaming-related operating rules rather than a standalone neighborhood bar.
