We’re hiring a Lead Server/Bartender to serve as the second-in-command at our restaurant. This role splits between working high-level service shifts and supporting the Restaurant Manager as a leadership partner, including covering MOD shifts on their days off.

This is not just a lead server role—this is a hands-on leadership position for someone ready to step up and help run the operation.

What You’ll Do:

  • Work scheduled shifts as a server/bartender, leading by example on the floor

  • Act as Manager on Duty (MOD) when the Restaurant Manager is off

  • Serve as the primary backup to the Restaurant Manager in daily operations

  • Lead shifts: manage flow, troubleshoot issues, and support the team in real time

  • Handle guest concerns with professionalism and authority

  • Help train, coach, and hold staff accountable to service standards

  • Assist with opening/closing procedures, shift organization, and team communication

What We’re Looking For:

  • Prior experience as a lead server, bartender, or supervisor required

  • Proven MOD or assistant management experience strongly preferred

  • Confident decision-maker who can run a shift independently

  • Strong floor presence—calm, organized, and respected by team members

  • Solid bartending and service skills

  • Ability to balance leadership responsibilities with active service shifts

What This Role Really Is:

  • Second-in-command in the restaurant

  • A bridge between staff and management

  • Someone who steps in and takes ownership when the manager is not present
