  • Basic knowledge of bar products, cocktail ingredients, and proper sanitation practices is a plus.

What We're Looking For

We need someone who moves with purpose, works clean, and doesn't wait to be told what needs to get done.

Jean's gets busy, the nights run late, the spaces are tight, and there's a lot of movement between floors. The right person understands that a great barback is essential to a successful night.

You should take pride in being prepared, keeping the team stocked, and making sure the bar never falls behind.

If you're dependable, physically capable, detail-oriented, and thrive in a high-energy nightlife environment, we'd love to hear from you.
