Experienced Event Bartenders — 4 Openings

A Houston private dining and events company is building a recurring in-house hospitality team. We are seeking four experienced bartenders for private dinners, corporate events, cocktail receptions, and culinary experiences.

The work

  • Set up organized, guest-ready bars, including glassware, tools, garnishes, ice, and beverage preparation.
  • Prepare specialty cocktails and execute classic and event-specific drinks consistently, along with beer, wine, and thoughtful alcohol-free options.
  • Deliver warm, polished service while maintaining speed, cleanliness, accurate pours, and responsible alcohol service.
  • Communicate replenishment needs and coordinate smoothly with the event lead and service team.
  • Complete bar breakdown, inventory checks, cleaning, and reset.

What we are looking for

  • At least two years of relevant bartending experience; craft cocktail, fine-dining, luxury-hotel, private-club, or upscale-event experience preferred.
  • Specialty-cocktail skills are required, along with strong knowledge of classic cocktails, spirits, and efficient bar setup. Wine knowledge is preferred.
  • Current TABC seller/server certification before working alcohol-service assignments.
  • Reliability, discretion, professional communication, and a team-first approach.
  • Reliable transportation and willingness to travel for events when needed.

Schedule and compensation

Part-time, event-based opportunities. Assignments and hours vary with bookings; this is a recurring roster rather than a guaranteed weekly schedule. $35 per hour with a six-hour minimum per event assignment ($210 minimum), plus bonus potential. Potential to grow into a full-time role as the business and staffing needs expand.

To apply

Please send your resume or relevant work history, availability, current certifications, and a short description of your cocktail and private-event experience. Please also include a current professional photo of yourself. A polished, well-groomed presentation and professional demeanor appropriate for a fine-dining environment are required. Professional references may be requested.
