Bar Manager

We're building a bar where the spirits are made just steps from where they're poured. A distillery-to-glass concept where production, service, and storytelling are part of one experience, and where hospitality is treated as a craft in its own right. It's a rare chance to help shape something from the ground up.

We're looking for a Bar Manager to help lead the way.

THE ROLE
This isn't only schedules and stock counts. You'll sit in a small leadership team stewarding a vision, leading a bar team that's involved in both the making and the serving of our spirits and cocktails, alongside a working on-site distillery.

You'll set the tone for service, build a culture of warm, intentional hospitality, and shape the creative direction of the drinks program. You'll mentor your team and make sure every detail reflects the standard we hold ourselves to. And you'll do it as an operator, not just a host, because the best guest experiences are built on a well-run bar.

WHAT YOU'LL OWN

• Lead consistent, high-quality service, and hold the standard through clear specs, build sheets, and SOPs when you're off the floor
• Roster, hire, train, and develop the team, with honest conversations about growth
• Own the numbers: pour cost, margins, stock, ordering, par levels, and wastage
• Shape and refresh the drinks list with the distillery, balancing signature creations with what guests actually order
• Run tastings and training so the whole team can speak to the spirits with confidence
• Keep service responsible and compliant: licensing, age verification, hygiene, and safety

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR
We don't hire for perfection. We hire for heart, leadership, and a love for people. You might be the right fit if:

• You believe hospitality is an act of care, not just a job
• You're passionate about cocktails, spirits, and the craft behind them
• You've led a team in a quality bar or hospitality setting ([3]+ years in a lead role)
• You're comfortable with cost control, inventory, and reading a P&L
• You take pride in developing people and making learning part of the everyday rhythm
• You're organised, and you know great guest experiences rest on well-run operations
• You see humility, grace, and kindness as strengths, not weaknesses

WHAT YOU'LL BE PART OF

• A bar built around its own distillery, an unusual thing to be part of in Singapore
• A culture that values warmth, intention, and genuine hospitality
• A team that supports your growth and empowers you to lead with heart
• A chance to help shape a program that aims to set a new standard in the region
• A group that believes in unreasonable hospitality and lasting connections

THE PRACTICAL BIT

• Location: Botanic Gardens
• Salary: $4,000 to $5,000 per month
• Hours: 44 hours, 5-day week
