| Aspect | Bar Helper | Bartender |
|---|---|---|
| Credentials | None required, basic knowledge of drinks | Food handler permits, bartending certification often preferred |
| Work Environment | Assist in bar setup, cleaning, and stocking | Prepare and serve drinks, interact with customers |
| Industry Usage | Support role in bars and restaurants | Frontline role, customer-facing |
| Search/Comparison Intent | Learn entry-level support roles | Understand drink preparation and customer service |
While both roles are essential in bar operations, a Bar Helper primarily supports the bar staff by handling setup, cleaning, and stocking tasks. A Bartender actively prepares and serves drinks, interacts with customers, and manages the bar area. The roles differ mainly in responsibilities and required skills, with bartenders typically having more customer-facing duties and certifications.

The project is currently in development and scheduled to open in 6–8 months.
The selected candidate will begin as an hourly bartender within one of our existing properties to learn our culture, standards, and systems while gradually assuming operational responsibilities. As we assess leadership readiness, this role will transition into a full‑time, salaried Bar Director position overseeing the new venue.
What We’re Looking For A hospitality professional with a strong bartending foundation, a passion for beverage programming, and the operational discipline to run a high‑volume, high‑touch bar environment. This role is ideal for a Lead Bartender or Bar Manager ready to step into full program ownership.

Follow all alcohol handling, sanitation, and safety procedures; maintain proper labeling, dating, and rotation.
Complete daily and weekly cleaning tasks, including dishwashing as needed.
Listen to guest feedback and resolve concerns with professionalism and care.
Assist with hiring, recruiting, and training bartenders and bar support staff.
Instruct team members on new equipment, recipes, and cleaning methods.
Help onboard new employees and support a positive, productive team culture.
Ensure smooth bar operations in the absence of senior leadership.
Contribute to and eventually lead beverage menu development, including seasonal, holiday, and themed offerings.
Manage daily inventory, ordering, vendor relationships, and receiving.
Oversee cost controls, waste management, and financial performance of the bar program.
Program and maintain POS systems (Toast), including menu updates and workflow optimization.
Build and manage staff schedules for the bar team.
Participate in cross‑departmental planning for events, activations, and service improvements.
Support the creation of systems, SOPs, and training materials for the new venue.
Play a key role in opening operations for the upcoming cocktail club & garden.
3+ years of bartending experience in high‑volume or high‑touch environments.
Prior leadership experience (Lead Bartender, Bar Supervisor, Bar Manager) strongly preferred.
Strong understanding of classic and modern cocktails, spirits, and beverage trends.
Experience with inventory management, ordering, and vendor communication.
Familiarity with Toast or similar POS systems.
Ability to train, motivate, and lead a team with clarity and consistency.
Organized, detail‑oriented, and comfortable balancing creative and operational responsibilities.
