You are the unsung hero of the night and the engine room of the bar. As our Bar Back, you’ll keep the drinks flowing and the bartenders moving by ensuring everything they need is stocked, prepped, and ready to go. You are the backbone of the floor and the bar, working behind the scenes to keep the party alive and kicking.
You’re high-energy, detail-oriented, and thrive in a fast-paced environment where no two minutes are the same. You have a 'no task is too small' attitude and can anticipate what the bartenders need before they even ask. You take pride in keeping your workspace organized, clean, and safe—running your zones with confidence and hustle.
