Job Description

Renaissance Hotels, a distinguished brand within the Marriott International portfolio, is renowned for its unique approach to hospitality that embraces the spirit and culture of the neighborhoods where its properties are located. Situated in Chicago, Illinois, the Renaissance Hotel at 1 W Wacker Dr offers guests an extraordinary experience that goes beyond ordinary stays, encouraging exploration and discovery. As part of Marriott International, Renaissance Hotels brings a global presence combined with thoughtful local influences, catering to travelers who seek not just accommodation but stories and adventures that resonate with their personal interests. This commitment to delivering memorable experiences is deeply embedded in the company culture, making it a preferred employer for professionals passionate about service, innovation, and cultural engagement. The company prides itself on fostering a welcoming and inclusive workplace where diversity is celebrated, and opportunities for growth and development are abundant. Renaissance Hotels is currently hiring a part-time Bartender to join their team at the Chicago location. This non-management role offers a competitive wage of $26.99 per hour and provides the opportunity to work in a dynamic, guest-focused environment. The bartender will serve as a key ambassador of the hotel’s brand and culture, responsible for crafting engaging and delicious cocktails while delivering exceptional guest service. A Renaissance bartender is not just a beverage technician but a cultural curator who stays abreast of new trends, micro-local offerings, and the evolving tastes of guests. The role requires a blend of technical proficiency in mixology and a strong passion for hospitality, combined with the ability to build meaningful relationships with guests and team members across departments like housekeeping and parking. The bartender must exhibit attention to detail, from accurately handling monetary transactions and maintaining report integrity to presenting a professional appearance aligned with company policies. Physical stamina is essential as the position involves extended periods of standing, moving around the bar area, and manual handling of items weighing up to 25 pounds. Bartenders at Renaissance Hotels also play an integral role in maintaining a safe and clean work environment, adhering to company procedures and ensuring the bar functions flawlessly as a hub of social connection and enjoyment. This role is ideal for enthusiastic individuals who are eager to immerse themselves in a culture that values innovation, connection, and authenticity, driving a best-in-class guest experience that inspires both guests and team members. Joining Renaissance Hotels means becoming part of a globally respected hospitality leader committed to equal opportunity employment, valuing the diverse backgrounds of all associates, and fostering an environment free from discrimination. Employees benefit from a comprehensive range of perks designed to support well-being and career advancement, with variations depending on position, location, and employment status. The Renaissance bartender position invites spirited individuals to bring their unique talents to a place where every night is an opportunity to craft exceptional stories and experiences for guests from around the world.
