Cocktail Server — Clockwork Raleigh

Hiring 1 | $2.13/hour + tips

Bring your personality. Make the night memorable.

Clockwork is looking for an engaging, attentive cocktail server who knows spirits and enjoys taking care of people.

We’re a restaurant and cocktail bar in downtown Raleigh with great music, dinner service, busy weekend nights, and an especially energetic holiday season during our Nutcracker Christmas bar.

We care about the art of noticing: acknowledging a new table, offering water, clearing an empty glass, or recognizing when someone needs help. Great service means paying attention and following through.

What we’re looking for

• At least 1 year of serving experience.
• Spirits knowledge is required.
• A warm, confident personality and an ability to engage with guests.
• Strong attention to detail and the ability to manage multiple tables.
• Clear communication, reliability, and a team-first attitude.
• The ability to keep service personal and organized during a rush.

What the job involves

Greeting guests, guiding them through the menu, making informed recommendations, taking accurate orders, delivering drinks and food, maintaining water service, clearing and resetting tables, handling payments, and completing closing duties.

We want someone who can read the room, connect with guests, and keep an eye on the details throughout the night.

Current shifts

• Friday: 7 p.m.–close
• Saturday: 7 p.m.–close

Room to grow

Cross-training opportunities are available after 6 months, or sooner depending on your skills, readiness, and eagerness to learn.

Our interview process

We start with a phone screening, followed by an in-person interview with our manager and owner. The final step is a stage—a paid working trial shift where you can meet the team, experience the pace, and get a feel for Clockwork. It’s a chance for both sides to see whether we’re a good fit. We want you to feel good about choosing us, too.

To apply

Please include your resume, availability, and social media handles or links if available. Tell us a little about your experience and what good hospitality means to you.

Pay: $2.13 per hour
