Job Description

Marriott International is a world-renowned leader in the hospitality industry, boasting a diverse portfolio of over 100 distinguished hotels and resorts including the luxury JW Marriott brand. Located in the vibrant Warehouse Arts District of New Orleans, the New Orleans Marriott offers guests an exceptional experience through innovative services, luxurious accommodations, and a commitment to high standards in hospitality. Marriott Hotels are synonymous with quality and comfort, providing an inviting environment for travelers worldwide while fostering a culture where associates are valued and empowered. The company promotes diversity, equal opportunity, and professional growth, making it an attractive workplace for hospitality professionals seeking to cultivate their careers.

The role of Bartender at the New Orleans Marriott is vital to delivering a memorable and unique guest experience. This full-time, non-management position places you at the heart of guest interaction in the Food and Beverage department, where your skills and passion for beverage preparation will shine. Success as a bartender here extends beyond simply mixing drinks — it involves creating personalized moments that delight guests and enhance their overall experience. The ideal bartender proactively stays abreast of market trends, understands evolving guest preferences, and acts as a welcoming host within the bar environment. The position requires keen attention to detail in every aspect, from the quality of the drinks served to the upkeep and function of the bar area, ensuring a professional and inviting atmosphere.

Beyond drink preparation, the bartender embraces responsibility for the guests' experiences, fostering relationships within the hotel and community, and maintaining exemplary standards of service. This role demands a versatile individual who thrives in a dynamic environment, practices safety and hygiene rigorously, and respects company policies regarding confidentiality, asset protection, and quality maintenance. Physical stamina is essential, as the position involves continuous movement, lifting, carrying, and reaching. Marriott places strong emphasis on professional appearance and communication skills, ensuring every interaction reflects the brand's prestigious reputation.

Joining JW Marriott means becoming part of a vibrant, global community known for its innovative and genuine approach to luxury hospitality. The employer invests in employees' professional development, training, and well-being, creating a workplace that nurtures talent and celebrates cultural diversity. At JW Marriott, you will find the support to become your best self while contributing meaningfully to the legacy of outstanding service. This is more than a job; it’s an opportunity to start fulfilling your purpose as a hospitality professional committed to excellence and guest satisfaction.
