Bar Staff

Established in 1994, our award-winning venues have been hosting events for over 30 years, including comedy, music, drag, podcasts, talks/Q&As & spoken word. Described by The Guardian as “enormously well-regarded”, we pride ourselves on a commitment to excellence & innovation in live events.


We are committed to diversity and inclusion, and are keen to attract people of different backgrounds, perspectives and experiences. We particularly encourage applications from historically underrepresented communities for all roles. Just like our venues are designed for everyone, so is our workplace, and we work hard to create an inclusive culture for everyone.

We are looking for an enthusiastic and hardworking person to join our bar and floor staff team for an average of 1 - 3 shifts a week. During the summer months we are quieter but shifts pick up from September through to June. We are looking for someone who is willing to be cross-trained and will work across both departments.

Pay: £12.80ph + tips and a bonus scheme, paid 4 weekly.

Job Role & Responsibilities : Bar

• Read tickets and make drinks efficiently and accurately.

• Clean, set up and close down the bar efficiently and to a high standard.

• Help the floor team take out drinks orders to tables.

Things To Know:

• Shifts start between 5pm - 7pm and generally finish between 8.00pm-11.30pm. Shift lengths vary between 4-6 hours. Shorter 2-3 hour shifts are available for those with second jobs or university.

• 
  We don't provide transport home but we are happy to allow you to leave at a reasonable time to get public transport if you let us know in advance.

• Due to the nature of our service model the first hour of the shift can be quite intense so an ability to work well under pressure is a must. We aim to serve all of our customers (up to 400 people) before the show starts. We then have intervals where the bar picks up again.

Perks:

• Free tickets to shows you're not working * (if they are our shows)

• Shifts finish early enough to still go out afterwards.

• Productivity scheme which could mean an extra £1.50 per hour, on that shift, if targets are hit.

• Friendly, inclusive and interesting place to work.

• Short, evening shifts, perfect for anyone studying or someone looking for a part time job.
