About The Position

TheatreSquared is seeking friendly and dependable Event Bar Staff to join their seasonal overhire team. This role will support performances, special events, and other activities at The Commons Bar & Café. It's an ideal opportunity for individuals who enjoy interacting with people, thrive in the energetic atmosphere of events, and are interested in bar service, even without prior bartending experience.

Staff will work alongside experienced team members and will not be expected to manage the bar or café independently. Previous bartending experience is not a requirement; experience with cash registers and customer service is more valuable. Experience in roles such as restaurant staff, coffee shop attendant, fast-food worker, retail associate, concessions staff, bar-back, or any customer-facing position is considered relevant.
