Lead Bartender

Bar Stelo | Stelo at Pierre’s

An exciting opportunity exists for an experienced Lead Bartender to join the team at Stelo and take a key role in the continued growth of Bar Stelo.

We are looking for a hospitality professional with excellent cocktail and wine knowledge, strong service instincts and the confidence to take ownership of a busy, quality-driven bar.

The Role

This is a hands-on senior position working across Bar Stelo and Stelo at Pierre’s.

You will:

• Lead service and set strong bar standards
• Create and develop seasonal cocktails
• Bring excellent wine knowledge to the guest experience
• Help manage the beverage offering across two bars
• Build genuine relationships with regulars, guests, suppliers and producers
• Train and support the wider bar team
• Contribute ideas that grow Bar Stelo while staying true to the Stelo brand
• Take ownership of presentation, consistency, stock, service and day-to-day bar operations

We are looking for someone who is commercially minded, reliable and genuinely invested in building a great bar, not simply working behind one.

The Commitment

This is a permanent senior role working a 9-day fortnight, with Saturdays essential.

We value work-life balance and currently operate evening service with Sundays closed.

The Reward

• Generous tips
• Staff dining and wine discounts
• Access to an award-winning beverage program
• Opportunities for professional development and industry learning
• Creative input into cocktails, wine and events
• A professional, supportive hospitality team
• The opportunity to play a meaningful role in the future of Bar Stelo

If you are an experienced bartender who loves cocktails, wine, great service and building the kind of bar people want to return to, we would love to hear from you.

Confidential applications are welcome.
