Job description
**About Us**
Cream City Concepts is Milwaukee’s hospitality group built for the energy of a packed house. We run Oak Barrel Public House, Who’s on Third, Who’s on Layton, Cream City Catering, and 3rd Street Retreat — craft food, cold drinks, game days, date nights, big events, and a place to stay, all over the city. The pace is fast, the standards are high, and the people are what make it work.
**About the Role**
The Bartender runs the bar — the drinks, the pace, and the personality of the room. You make every drink to standard and fast, you run a clean and stocked bar, and you turn the people in front of you into regulars. The bar is a destination in our venues, and you set its tone. You also control the bottles and the drawer, so we count on you to pour to standard, ring in everything, and handle cash honestly every single time. Great bartending is craft, hospitality, and integrity at the same time.
**One Team, One Bar**
In our venues, nobody stands around while the room needs something. When the floor needs it, everyone crosses over — you’ll run food, help servers, support the door, and jump in wherever the room needs a hand. You work hand\-in\-hand with your barback to keep the bar flying, and we run as one team, not separate jobs.
**Always Guest\-Ready**
If you’ve got time to lean, you’ve got time to clean — and you never make a trip with an empty hand. Between drinks you’re clearing glassware, wiping down, restocking, cutting garnish, and getting ahead of the next rush. A clean, fully stocked, guest\-ready bar is the standard here, not the exception — and you work the opening, side\-work, and closing checklists without being asked.
******What We’re Hiring For**
Skills can be taught. These five can’t — they’re the bar in every CCC venue, every shift.
* **Optimistic Warmth —** You’re the personality of the bar — genuine, upbeat, and welcoming — and you hold that energy when it’s three\-deep and the night runs long.
* **Curious Intelligence —** Yo
