Description

? We're Looking for a Beverage Leader. Not Just a Bartender.

Can you build a cocktail program that people talk about?

The Maggiore Group is searching for an experienced Mixologist to lead the cocktail experience at one of our award-winning restaurants.

This is a unique opportunity where you will still work behind the bar AND shape the beverage identity of the restaurant brand, create unforgettable cocktail programs, help to develop a talented bar team, and have a direct impact on profitability, guest experience, and company growth. This is a salaried position but you will still be able to earn tips whenever you bartend – the best of both worlds!

If you're equally passionate about creativity and operational excellence—and know that a great cocktail program is built with systems, training, consistency, and innovation—we want to meet you.

What You'll Do

  • Design innovative seasonal cocktail menus and signature beverage programs.
  • Create recipes, specifications, and standardized operating procedures.
  • Develop bar training manuals, checklists, and educational materials.
  • Train bar teams to execute every cocktail with consistency and precision.
  • Analyze and control beverage COGS, pricing, inventory, and pour costs.
  • Establish purchasing standards, spirit selections, and par levels.
  • Evaluate bar layouts and workflows to improve speed, efficiency, and guest experience.
  • Ensure every beverage meets company standards for quality, presentation, and consistency.
  • Work alongside Operations leadership to continuously improve beverage performance.
  • Develop systems that reduce waste while elevating quality.
  • Maintain the highest standards of sanitation, organization, and operational excellence.
  • Deliver exceptional guest experiences each and every time you’re behind the bar

We're Looking For Someone Who...

  • Lives and breathes hospitality.
  • Has a passion for creating cocktails guests can't stop talking about.
  • Understands the business behind the bar—not just the drinks.
  • Can inspire, coach, and elevate bar teams.
  • Thrives in a fast-paced, multi-unit environment.
  • Is obsessed with details, consistency, and continuous improvement.
  • Loves building systems that make restaurants more profitable.
  •  

Qualifications

  • 5–7 years as a professional bartender
  • Strong knowledge of inventory management, purchasing, and beverage cost controls
  • Experience developing successful training programs
  • Thorough understanding of restaurant safety and sanitation
  • ServSafe Certification & Food Handler Card
  • Experience with inventory systems and COGS management
  • Outstanding leadership and communication skills
  • Highly organized with exceptional attention to detail
  • Self-motivated with strong problem-solving abilities
  • Proven ability to create unique, elevated cocktail programs
