The role of Bartender at JW Marriott Clearwater Beach Resort & Spa transcends the typical service of simply mixing drinks. A bartender here is envisioned as a host of the space, providing a memorable and unique beverage experience in alignment with the evolving needs of guests. This role is full-time hourly non-management, with a wage of $12.00 per hour plus tip eligibility. Bartenders at JW Marriott are encouraged to be beverage enthusiasts who stay updated with current trends and micro-local offerings to delight guests. They not only deliver drinks with precision and quality but also ensure that the bar functions flawlessly through expert knowledge and hands-on responsibility. By fostering relationships across the hotel and in the local community, bartenders help anticipate and exceed guest expectations, extending their role beyond the bar to overall guest service ownership.

Key to this position is maintaining high standards in all operational aspects, including cash handling, guest communication, and drink quality. Bartenders must create a safe working environment by adhering strictly to company policies and protecting assets, while also ensuring a professional image through their attire and demeanor. The job demands physical stamina, requiring bartenders to be on their feet for extended periods, maneuvering throughout the space, and handling weights up to 25 pounds without assistance. Flexibility and willingness to perform various reasonable duties as assigned are essential to meet the dynamic nature of hospitality service.

JW Marriott Clearwater Beach Resort & Spa values open availability for this role, highlighting the importance of schedule flexibility in providing continuous, excellent guest service.
