Job Description

The Joint Base Lewis-McChord American Lake Conference Center is a premier facility dedicated to providing exceptional event hosting and catering services for military personnel, their families, and various distinguished guests. Situated within the vibrant military community of Joint Base Lewis-McChord, the American Lake Conference Center offers a wide range of banquet and catering options, making it a key hub for official functions and private celebrations alike. With a strong commitment to quality service and customer satisfaction, the center prides itself on delivering seamless event experiences through professional and attentive staff. This establishes the conference center as a respected venue within the military and local community, known for its high standards and reliable service.

This role is for a bartender position within the catering department of the American Lake Conference Center. It is a flexible job opportunity with varying hours from zero to forty per week, designed to accommodate different scheduling needs without the inclusion of traditional employee benefits. The position involves preparing and serving both alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages to guests while maintaining a professional and courteous demeanor. The bartender not only mixes drinks to specification but also ensures accurate billing and inventory management. This role requires the ability to handle physically demanding tasks such as lifting items weighing up to 40 pounds and the skill to supervise and guide other bar staff when necessary. Serving alcoholic beverages legally necessitates compliance with state and local age requirements, which for this role means being at least 21 years old at the time of appointment.

Candidates interested in this position should be prepared to present a condensed resume of two pages or less that clearly outlines their relevant experience and skills in bartending and customer service settings. The bartender will play a critical role in supporting the catering team to make every event enjoyable and professionally managed. Although this position does not include participation in the NAF Employee Benefits Plans and does not offer incentives or bonuses, it provides a valuable opportunity for those who wish to work in a dynamic environment serving a diverse clientele. The employment type is classified as other, reflecting the flexible nature of the position and its suitability for individuals seeking non-traditional work hours in a reputable military facility environment.
