About The Position

Let's Be Friends! At Ko-Kwel Casino Resort, there's nothing better than being around your friends, and that's exactly the atmosphere we want to create here. We want team members to feel like they're welcomed with the unique experiences and growth we can offer. Come be part of the special atmosphere and hospitality of the hotel, or the welcoming, fun and friendly character of the restaurants and casino. Join our team in its dedication to be the leading destination for gaming and hospitality on the beautiful, southern Oregon coast! Why this job matters Our Cask Club isn't just about spirits - it's about stories. Each barrel tells one: of the guest who crafted it, the memories shared around it, and the place where it was born. As our Cask Club Manager, you'll be the keeper of that story. You'll connect guests to the magic of Heritage Distilling's craft, to the warmth of Ko-Kwel hospitality, and to the sense of belonging that keeps them coming back - for another bottle, another taste, another unforgettable experience. This role is part sales, part storytelling, and all heart. You'll invite guests into an experience that goes far beyond the pour - showing them what it means to be part of something rare, local, and deeply personal. What you bring to the table Make sure the space stays safe, clean, and friendly for both guests and the rest of the team; speak up and report any safety concerns to the Safety Committee.
