Bartender | Margo's

Margo’s is a vibrant restaurant inspired by the bold flavours of Mexico. Known for exceptional food, handcrafted cocktails, and genuine hospitality, we deliver a fast-paced, energetic dining experience where great drinks are a huge part of what we do. We’re part of Future Hospitality Group (FHG), a leading local operator with six unique venues, committed to pushing the boundaries of hospitality and exceeding guest expectations. We’re looking for a part-time or full-time Bartender to join the Margo’s team. This is a high-volume, docket bar where speed, consistency, and attention to detail matter. One minute you’ll be shaking the perfect Margarita, the next you’ll be sending out a Frozen Marg Tree while the printer keeps rolling. What you’ll do High-volume cocktail service: Produce cocktails quickly, accurately, and consistently during busy services. Docket management: Stay on top of a fast-moving docket rail and keep drinks flowing to the floor. Quality & consistency: Follow recipes, specs, glassware, and garnish standards, even when the bar is pumping. Bar setup: Keep your station stocked, clean, organised, and ready for volume. Teamwork: Communicate clearly with the bar and FOH teams to keep service running smoothly. Hospitality standards: Uphold host responsibility, health & safety, and FHG standards. Who you are You thrive in a busy, high-volume bar and enjoy the energy of a full restaurant service. You work quickly without sacrificing quality or consistency. You’re confident managing multiple dockets and priorities at once. Previous cocktail or high-volume bartending experience is strongly preferred. You have solid cocktail fundamentals and confidence using standard bar tools and techniques. You stay calm and focused when the docket printer doesn’t. You’re organised, proactive, reliable, and a strong team player. You align with our values: Aspirational, Collaboration, Communication, Consistency, and Culture. Why join FHG? Staff perks: 50% off at all six FHG venues and 25% off at four partner venues across Queenstown. Professional development: Free online training to grow your skills and prepare for future opportunities. Wellbeing benefits: Discounted gym memberships, Pilates discounts, wellbeing programmes, and mental health support. Career progression: Opportunities to develop your bartending, beverage, and leadership skills across FHG venues. An Employer of Choice: Join a business committed to raising the standard of hospitality in New Zealand. If you love a busy bar, know your way around a cocktail shaker, and get a kick out of smashing through a full docket rail while keeping every Margarita on point, we’d love to hear from you. #J-18808-Ljbffr
