Bar Staff are not only the friendly faces greeting your customers from behind the bar, but they’re also responsible for ensuring the bar runs smoothly by keeping the bar area clean and replenishing stock. Taking orders, advising customers about current promotions and mixing drinks are just some of the customer-facing responsibilities for Bar Staff. However, to ensure bar service can operate efficiently, they also monitor stock levels, restocking when needed, promptly react to spills or hazards and reach out to the Bar Manager for support when needed.
