Role summary
Written by MyIslandJob from the job title and employer. See the employer's page for the full description.
The Barback supports bartenders and the wider beverage team by preparing garnishes, restocking drinks and supplies, collecting glassware, maintaining clean bar areas and assisting with efficient service. Candidates should ideally have hospitality or bar experience, strong organisation skills and a good understanding of hygiene and workplace safety. The role requires energy, reliability, teamwork and the ability to work comfortably in a busy, guest-focused environment. Flexibility is essential, including evenings, weekends and holidays. Four Seasons expects candidates to deliver polished service, maintain high presentation standards, communicate courteously and anticipate the needs of both colleagues and guests. A positive attitude, willingness to learn and the legal right to work in the United Kingdom are important.
