Service Bartender

Chulita is a vibrant and dynamic hospitality establishment that forms part of Chulita Hospitality, known for delivering exceptional dining experiences in a lively and engaging atmosphere. The company prides itself on its commitment to excellence, quality service, and a team-oriented environment where every staff member plays a critical role in upholding the brand's reputation. Operating within the restaurant industry, Chulita focuses on crafting memorable culinary journeys complemented by a curated selection of beverages to ensure guest satisfaction.

The role of a Service Well Bartender at Chulita is specialized and essential to the smooth operation of the bar and overall guest experience. Unlike traditional bartenders who interact directly with customers, the Service Well Bartender works behind the scenes at a dedicated "service well" station, preparing alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages exclusively for cocktail servers. This position demands exceptional speed, accuracy, and efficiency as the bartender supports the front-of-house team by quickly fulfilling drink orders during high-volume service periods.

The Service Well Bartender is responsible for mixing, garnishing, and serving drinks according to standardized recipes to ensure consistency and quality. This role requires a deep understanding of classic cocktails and restaurant-standard drink recipes, as well as the ability to multitask effectively under pressure. The bartender will manage inventory and restock essential items such as liquor, beer, wine, mixers, ice, and glassware, ensuring the service well is always prepared for peak service times.

Attention to cleanliness and organization is paramount, with duties that include maintaining a sanitized service station, cleaning tools, and washing glassware. Preparation tasks such as slicing fruit, preparing garnishes, and pre-mixing juices or mixes before shifts are also integral to the job. Effective communication with servers, managers, and bar staff is necessary to maintain smooth and coordinated service.

This role requires working during the weekends, specifically Saturdays and Sundays, as these are peak times for hospitality operations. Applicants must have full weekend availability to be considered for this position. The ideal candidate is personable, engaging, and capable of maintaining a rapid pace without sacrificing quality or accuracy. Physical stamina is essential due to the demands of standing for long periods and handling loads of up to 50 pounds.

Joining Chulita means becoming part of a passionate team dedicated to providing outstanding hospitality and customer satisfaction. The Service Well Bartender position not only offers a chance to work in a fast-paced and rewarding environment but also to develop professional skills within a respected hospitality group. Candidates excited about contributing to a high-energy setting and who meet the stringent requirements of the role are encouraged to apply through the company’s official channels.
