About this role
Working as a bartender at The Ritz-Carlton in Los Angeles means executing drink preparation and service at a luxury hospitality standard. You'll mix cocktails to recipe specifications, manage wine and champagne service, maintain an immaculate bar setup, and handle cash processing and end-of-shift accounting. The role combines technical bartending skills—measuring, garnishing, glassware management—with the operational discipline of a high-end property: securing inventory, restocking supplies, and completing closing procedures.
This position suits someone with at least a year of bartending or related bar experience who can sustain the physical demands of full-time service work—standing for entire shifts, lifting up to 50 pounds, and moving through a busy bar environment. Beyond drink-making, the role requires strong guest interaction skills aligned with Ritz-Carlton service standards: welcoming guests, anticipating their needs, and maintaining professional composure and appearance throughout your shift. You'll also need to follow safety protocols, handle multiple payment methods accurately, and work collaboratively with your team to maintain quality and operational standards.
