Job Description

Job Description Job Description THE DUPLEX Seeking Rockstar Bartenders

The Duplex has been a cornerstone of New York City nightlife since 1951. Woody Allen, Joan Rivers, and Barbra Streisand found their footing on our stage. Pink performed here just last month. We are in constant demand to add quality staff to our team and will create an opening for the right person. Specifically, we are always looking for individuals who love this industry, love this city, and cannot freaking wait to make this space even more extraordinary. If that is you, we want you in!

You will know you are a fit if you:

Have a minimum of 5 years bartending experience in a fast-paced environment

Have a genuine love for the nightlife industry and New York City bar culture

Anticipate the needs of customers without being asked, noticing when a drink hits the bottom third rather than waiting to be flagged down

Approach every guest with grace, integrity, and excitement, whether they are a baller or a Karen

Can handle a tough customer without having a meltdown

Sell with such natural ease it barely registers as selling, and upsell without ever coming off as pushy

Love to orient customers to the space, greet them with excitement, and verbally walk them through what is available rather than drop a menu and wait for an order

View customers in other parts of the bar as a testament to how incredible The Duplex is, rather than a threat to your own sales

Know how to turn someone stopping in for one quick drink into a guest who stays the entire night, tells all their friends, and writes a glowing review

Bring enthusiasm that is genuinely contagious

Are obsessed with cleanliness, take real pride in your station, and restock, wipe down, prepare garnishes, and place napkins without being asked

Show up on time, in uniform, and cannot wait to start your shift

Are cooperative with teammates and entirely uninterested in workplace drama or petty politics

Are strong enough in yourself to receive feedback and see management as an opportunity to grow rather than an obstacle to push against

Have no interest in drinking or engaging in illicit substances on the job.

To Apply: We hire on a rolling basis and will make room for you if you are the right Rockstar! To apply bring your resume and your badass self to one of our open calls.

The Duplex is an equal opportunity employer. We celebrate difference, welcome it, and believe our team is stronger because of it. All are encouraged to apply.

Thursday 3/pm-2pm

Friday 3/am-1pm

Monday 3/16 3pm-5pm
