We are looking for a dedicated and energetic Barback to join our team and support our bartenders in delivering exceptional service to our guests. As a Barback, you will play a crucial behind-the-scenes role in ensuring the bar runs smoothly and efficiently. Your responsibilities will include restocking supplies, maintaining cleanliness, and assisting bartenders with various tasks during busy shifts. This position is ideal for individuals who are passionate about the hospitality industry and eager to learn the ins and outs of bar operations.
The ideal candidate is a team player with a strong work ethic, excellent organizational skills, and the ability to work in a fast-paced environment. You should be physically capable of lifting heavy items and standing for extended periods. While previous experience in a bar or restaurant setting is a plus, it is not required, as we are willing to train the right person who demonstrates enthusiasm and a willingness to learn.
As a Barback, you will be responsible for ensuring that the bar is fully stocked with liquor, mixers, ice, glassware, and other necessary supplies. You will also be expected to clean and sanitize bar areas, including countertops, sinks, and floors, to maintain a safe and hygienic environment. Additionally, you may assist with preparing garnishes, organizing storage areas, and disposing of trash and recyclables.
This role offers an excellent opportunity to gain hands-on experience in the food and beverage industry and can serve as a stepping stone to becoming a bartender or other front-of-house positions. We value hard work, reliability, and a positive attitude, and we strive to create a supportive and inclusive workplace where all team members can thrive.
If you are looking to start or grow your career in hospitality and enjoy working in a dynamic, social environment, we encourage you to apply for the Barback position today.
