Job Description

Geeks Who Drink is a leading entertainment company specializing in live pub quizzes and trivia events in local bars and venues across the country. The company brings people together for fun, interactive trivia nights that create community engagement and provide an enjoyable experience for trivia lovers and casual patrons alike. Known for its vibrant atmosphere and varied trivia styles, Geeks Who Drink continuously seeks enthusiastic and personable individuals to join its team and represent the brand as event hosts. The business thrives by combining entertainment with social interaction, giving guests a memorable night out while boosting venue patronage. This makes it an excellent employer for those who enjoy social environments, intellectual challenges, and performing in front of audiences. Geeks Who Drink primarily hires for part-time roles with competitive pay, flexible scheduling, and unique perks that appeal to trivia enthusiasts and outgoing personalities. Their main product is the live trivia event experience, which combines the challenge of quiz competition with the casual vibe of local bars, fostering an energized and connected community of players and fans.

This particular role involves being a JEOPARDY! Bar League host, tasked with bringing an exclusive, live, team-based trivia experience to life. The host serves as the face of the event, responsible for engaging and entertaining participants in a format that merges the prestige of JEOPARDY! with the relaxed setting of a favorite neighborhood bar trivia night. This job is perfect for individuals who love intellectual competition and enjoy performing in front of a crowd and managing dynamic social environments. The role requires the ability to command a room, entertain a diverse audience, and maintain the flow of the event by using a web-based app and other technological tools. Hosts will undergo training—either online or in person—covering audio-visual setup and the effective use of the hosting applications to ensure smooth and professional event execution. This position is part-time, with typical work occurring Wednesday evenings starting at 6:30 PM. The compensation starts at $20 per hour, making it a great opportunity for trivia aficionados who want to earn while doing what they love. In addition to the hourly pay, hosts receive sick pay based on events worked and have access to a referral bonus program when they introduce new hosts or venues to the network. The atmosphere is fun and laid-back, encouraging hosts to share their passion for trivia and create an inviting environment where players can have a great time learning and competing. Working as a JEOPARDY! Bar League host offers a unique combination of social interaction, entertainment performance, and a chance to be part of a growing community-centered entertainment brand.
