The company invests in its staff by providing supportive training programs and encouraging career growth within the hospitality sector, ensuring that its employees are well-prepared to meet and exceed customer expectations.

The barback role at Three Oaks Hospitality is a crucial supporting position within the bar team aimed at ensuring the bar operates smoothly and efficiently. Barbacks work closely with bartenders to maintain an organized and well-stocked bar area, enabling bartenders to focus on delivering excellent drinks and customer service without interruption. This position involves a variety of responsibilities, including cleaning the bar, replenishing supplies such as garnishes, napkins, straws, and glassware, and making sure beverages like liquors, wines, and beers are readily available. The barback also assists with equipment checks, including taps and appliances, performing minor repairs or keg changes when necessary. This role requires an individual who is quick, perceptive, and capable of thriving in a fast-paced environment where multitasking and attention to detail are essential.

Barbacks are expected to understand menu items and memorize cocktail recipes to assist bartenders effectively and occasionally interact directly with customers during busy periods by taking orders, preparing drinks, bussing tables, opening tabs, and processing payments. Excellent communication skills are vital, as barbacks also engage with customers by answering questions and handling any complaints promptly and courteously. The role demands physical stamina, as barbacks spend prolonged periods standing or walking and must be able to lift and balance trays weighing up to 25 pounds. The position requires a minimum age of 21, a high school diploma or GED, and a valid Food Handler Certification to ensure compliance with health and safety standards.

This is an entry-level, hourly position that offers a competitive pay structure combined with tips, making it an attractive opportunity for individuals eager to build a career in hospitality. Three Oaks Hospitality also supports its employees with benefits such as employee discounts, a referral program, flexible scheduling, and paid training, creating an environment conducive to personal and professional development.
