Bartender

About The Role

We are looking for a warm, knowledgeable and passionate

Bartender to join the Arlecchino by tashas team.

As a Bartender, you will be an important part of the guest experience, creating beautifully prepared beverages while delivering service that is attentive, genuine and quietly confident. You will bring energy and care to every interaction, understand what our guests are looking for, and make thoughtful recommendations that enhance their experience.

From the first welcome to the final farewell, you will help create an environment that feels polished, generous and distinctly Arlecchino.

Your Mission

Your mission is simple: to make every guest feel welcome, looked after and excited to return.

You will take ownership of the bar throughout service, ensuring every drink is prepared with precision and consistency, every detail is considered, and every guest receives the level of care expected of an Arlecchino by tashas experience.

You will be a true ambassador of the brand — living our values through the way you work, communicate and collaborate with those around you.
