Bartender

Skinner's Loft
Jersey City, NJ
We are an independently owned and operated American Bistro in the heart of downtown Jersey City. For nearly 18 years we have served as a neighborhood gathering place serving excellent and comfortable food and drink. We source many of our ingredients through direct relationships we have with organic vegetable farmers, fish mongers, and beef and pork farmers. We have land in upstate New York on which we are raising our own beef cows, and use table scraps from the restaurant to feed the hogs that become the pork products we serve. We have reduced our waste stream by using conventional food products more sparingly, and by using our food waste as compost and hog feed. Our bar program features macro brands which help keep a portion of guests comfortable, as well as smaller, independent and family owned brands that create a more bespoke experience for guests looking to branch out from the more familiar.

We are looking for a bartender who is passionate about mixology, hospitality and farm to table. If you are someone who loves restaurants - making people feel welcome, comfortable and cared for; loves great, fresh, local food; if you have a passion for making drinks, communicating with people, engaging guests, sharing stories of our products and the people making them, and would like to build a career in hospitality, we would like you to join our team.

Some of the requirements:

The ability to stand for long periods of time and lift 40+lbs

  • Comfort in a fast paced environment
    Strong work ethic, including being open to feedback from management and senior staff
  • Providing warm and open service, not just being an 'order taker'
  • Basic (and beyond) food and beverage knowledge (including but not limited to cooking techniques, common methods of preparation, wine & spirits, etc)
    Guiding guests through food and beverage menus and making appropriate suggestions
  • Clear & precise communication with the kitchen regarding allergies an special requests
    Setting up and breaking down service areas
  • Recognizing regulars, but extending the same level of service to every guest Participation in staff meetings/trainings and ongoing education
  • Exemplary punctuality; call time is 3pm for dinner shifts and 10am for brunch (Sat/Sun only)

Bartender responsibilities:

  • Making sure the bar is fully set up before the start of service
  • Maintaining the flow of the service bar as well as tending to the 11- seat bar top
  • Assisting with restocking before and/or after the shift
  • Maintaining a clean and orderly workspace
  • Being responsible for the till and making sure cash payments are handled appropriately
