The Barback role at Mexico Ceaty is critical to the smooth operation of the bar and overall guest satisfaction. Known as the engine behind the magic, the barback ensures that the bartenders can perform their craft efficiently without interruption. This is a fast-paced, hands-on position that requires constant attention to detail and a proactive mindset. The barback's primary responsibility is to keep the ice bins full, considered the single most important task, alongside maintaining a continuous supply of bottles, garnishes, juices, and other bar essentials throughout the shift. Glassware cleanliness and availability are also paramount; the barback must bus and wash glasses nonstop ensuring the bar never runs out. Keeping the bar back area clean, safe, and organized not only supports the bartenders but also contributes to the overall efficiency and safety of the workplace.

Furthermore, the barback assists bartenders with prep tasks before and during service and occasionally runs drinks to tables when extra team support is needed. A successful barback is someone who knows where everything is stored to restock swiftly, takes initiative without constant supervision, and is committed to learning and possibly progressing to bartending themselves. This role demands someone with Get It, Want It, Capacity to Do It (GWC) — meaning they understand their responsibilities, desire the job, and have the ability to perform under pressure. Winning in this role is defined by seamless bar operation, no interruptions for bartenders looking for supplies, a fully stocked bar throughout the shift, and positive recognition from the Shift Lead and bartenders alike.

Mexico Ceaty is an equal opportunity employer that values workforce diversity and encourages candidates from all backgrounds to apply.
