Experienced Server/Bartender

The Sandbar Restaurant is looking for an experienced server/bartender who can deliver outstanding service, create great drinks and help lead our front-of-house team.

This is not an entry-level or part-time position. We’re looking for someone dependable, confident and experienced—someone who can take ownership of a shift, support the team and help create an atmosphere that keeps guests coming back.

You’ll be trained on both opening and closing the restaurant, giving you a complete understanding of our daily operation and the opportunity to take on real leadership responsibility.

What We’re Looking For

• Previous serving and bartending experience is required
• Full-time availability for both day and evening shifts
• Weekend and holiday availability
• Strong leadership and communication skills
• Confidence working in a busy restaurant environment
• Excellent guest-service skills
• Creativity and an interest in developing drink specials
• Strong attention to detail, particularly with inventory and cash handling
• The ability to remain organized and professional under pressure
• A dependable person who takes ownership and follows through
• A valid responsible beverage-service certification, as required

What You’ll Be Doing

• Serving guests and bartending during both day and evening shifts
• Helping maintain a positive, organized and accountable workplace
• Opening and closing the restaurant
• Creating exciting and profitable drink specials
• Maintaining accurate liquor, beer, wine and bar-supply inventory
• Monitoring stock levels and assisting with ordering
• Ensuring drinks are prepared consistently and correctly
• Training and supporting other front-of-house employees
• Handling payments and balancing cash accurately
• Resolving guest concerns professionally
• Maintaining a clean, organized and properly stocked bar
• Following responsible alcohol-service and food-safety standards
• Communicating effectively with management and the kitchen team

Opportunity to Grow

This position offers more than serving tables and making drinks. The successful candidate will have the opportunity to strengthen their leadership and learn more about:

• Staff training and shift management
• Beverage costing and pricing
• Inventory control and ordering
• Labour management
• Developing profitable drink features
• Opening and closing procedures
• Building an excellent guest experience

We also own another restaurant location that is growing, creating the potential for additional leadership and advancement opportunities across our businesses. For the right person, there may be room to take on a larger role as both locations continue to develop.

We want someone who brings energy, ideas and high standards to every shift. If you’re an experienced server/bartender who is ready to lead, create, earn great tips and grow with us, we’d like to meet you.
