You should be equally comfortable demonstrating a technique, answering questions, telling a story, and keeping a room energized from start to finish.

What You'll Do

  • Welcome guests and create a warm, engaging atmosphere
  • Teach culinary or beverage techniques in a way that is approachable and easy to understand
  • Conduct live demonstrations while keeping guests involved and entertained
  • Share stories, insights, and industry knowledge that enhance the experience
  • Encourage participation and confidently answer guest questions
  • Maintain the pace, flow, and energy of each event
  • Adapt your presentation style for private events, corporate groups, celebrations, and public classes
  • Collaborate with chefs, bartenders, and event staff to ensure successful execution
  • Assist with setup, ingredient organization, preparation, and breakdown as needed
  • Maintain food safety, sanitation, and workplace safety standards
  • Represent the company with professionalism and hospitality
Qualifications Required

  • Experience with public speaking, demonstrations, teaching, or entertainment
  • Knowledge of wine, spirits, cocktails, food pairings, or specialty beverages
  • Experience with experiential hospitality, private events, or corporate programs
Who You Are

You're knowledgeable without being intimidating, confident without being arrogant, and entertaining without losing professionalism.

You enjoy connecting with people and know how to turn a class, tasting, or demonstration into an experience guests will remember and talk about long after the event ends.


What Success Looks Like

Guests leave feeling welcomed, engaged, entertained, and inspired. They learn something new, participate actively, and walk away with a memorable experience led by a host who made them feel included and excited to come back again.


Perfect for chefs, bartenders, culinary instructors, beverage educators, and hospitality professionals looking for flexible, guest-facing work in a fun and engaging environment.
