Bartender

Nestled in the heart of London's West End you'll find The Palomar. Our small space is bursting with the vibrant colours, flavours, sounds and aromas of the rich cultures of Southern Spain and Italy, North Africa and the Levant. Whether in the midst of the action at our kitchen counter, back in the elegant dining room or spilling out onto our street terrace, the atmosphere here remains at the forefront of our city's dining scene.

We're looking for an experienced Cocktail Bartender to join our Front of House team.

You'll be

• A confident and vibrant personality who thrives in the buzz of service. Our bar team are in the action behind our kitchen bar, engaging with our guests and guiding them through the whole Palomar experience.
• Knowledgeable about classic cocktails and wine. We encourage our bartenders to work with Ross, our Bar Manager, on developing the ever-evolving cocktail list. Original creations from our Bartenders are now firm Palomar favourites! Previous experience bartending in a similar restaurant environment will set you up for success with us.
• Excited to be part of a collaborative and supportive team. We approach set-up, service and clean-down with the highest standards, helping each other along the way. You'll be experienced on the floor and comfortable getting stuck in and supporting the Waiters during a busy service.

Our benefits

• Internal growth. You will have the opportunity to develop your career in an ambitious and award-winning restaurant group.
• Up to £2,000 Employee Referral Scheme available to all.
• Paid development courses - WSET, Watershed and more.
• Generous staff discount of up to 50% across all our Studio Paskin venues.
• Cost price wine and supplier discounts.
• Enhanced parental leave package.
• Emergency cash and weekly wage advances with PayCaptain.
• Partnership with Kelly's Cause and automatic enrolment onto Hospitality Action's Employee Assistance Programme - access to counselling, remote GP/physio services, legal advice, and more.

We believe that taking care of our team isn't an extra perk - it's our responsibility. At work, you will always have access to free staff meals, proper breaks, and Mental Health First Aid-trained managers to support you.
