Bartender
Job Description
We are seeking a skilled and enthusiastic Bartender to join our dynamic team. The ideal candidate will have a passion for mixology and excellent guest service skills, ensuring that every guest enjoys a memorable experience. As a Bartender, you will be responsible for crafting cocktails, serving beverages, and creating an inviting atmosphere in our establishment. This role requires strong time management abilities and a commitment to maintaining high standards of food safety and cleanliness.
About Bank & Baron
Nestled inside the grand 1920 Dominion Bank building—think marble columns, soaring ceilings, and original vault doors—Bank & Baron is Calgary’s upscale gathering spot for craft cocktails, elevated pub fare, and after-work celebrations. We blend historic charm with modern mixology, creating a place where every sip feels like a dividend.
Responsibilities
Craft & Pour with Precision – Shake, stir, or strain every drink—boozy or zero-proof—exactly to spec, so each sip tastes like compound interest.
Keep the “Trading Desk” Spotless – Polish tools, sanitize glassware, and make the bar shine brighter than freshly minted coins.
Balance the Books – Run the POS, handle cash, and close out tabs as accurately as a CFO signing off quarter-end reports.
Guide Guest Portfolios – Recommend cocktails, flights, or mocktails that match each guest’s taste profile (and mood) while answering every “What’s good?” with confidence.
Monitor Responsible Investing (in Spirits) – Track ******* consumption, offer water and food pairings, and know when to gently call “last round” before anyone hits overdraft.
Sync with the Kitchen – Coordinate timing so plates land hot and cocktails land cold, creating seamless service “mergers.”
Guard the Vault (a.k.a. Food-Safety Standards) – Follow AGLC and health-code regs to the letter—because safe service always pays dividends.
You Bring
2+ years behind a high-volume craft bar (or the magical equivalent).
WSET, BarSmarts, or similar creds? Gold stars—and extra cherries.
Fluent in garnishes, bitters, and dad jokes.
Ability to hustle during happy hour, and remain chill when someone orders “a surprise—make it blue.”
Alberta ProServe certification.
