Bartender

Cocktail Caravan is hiring engaging, experienced bartenders for special events. This is a perfect role for a service industry professional who is ready to share their skills and bar knowledge with new guests in settings that vary daily from intimate dinners to large-scale corporate events to weddings. We are more than happy to train the right servers and bar backs to work behind our bars.

About You
You radiate warmth behind the bar/on the floor and bring a positive outlook to every guest interaction. Guests love having you behind the bar so much so that they regularly request you specifically! You’re well-versed in the history, specifics, and production of spirits, wine, and beer and are comfortable sharing this knowledge with guests. You take pride in the details: perfect fresh garnishes, well-balanced cocktails, and a clean work station and bar. That being said, you’re still laid back and ready to roll with the punches as they come in at events (often!) and don’t take things too seriously behind the bar (its cocktails, not brain surgery!). It makes you feel awesome when you do something that helps, enhances, or makes another human’s day.
