The company stands out as a one-of-a-kind destination that brings the relaxed and refined atmosphere of wine country to bustling urban environments through its unique combination of a fully functioning winery, fine dining, private events, food and wine classes, and intimate concert settings. This distinctive approach attracts a sophisticated clientele of food enthusiasts, active cultural patrons, and music lovers seeking an immersive and memorable outing. City Winery is currently offering an exceptional opportunity for individuals passionate about hospitality and live entertainment to join their team as Event Servers. This role is designed for a dynamic professional ready to contribute to delivering consistently exceptional guest experiences in a fast-paced, high-volume environment. The Event Server position requires a polished and personable individual who thrives on interacting with diverse guests, anticipating needs, and representing the City Winery brand with excellence. Working at City Winery means being part of a collaborative team committed to hospitality as a guiding philosophy, not just a buzzword. The establishment places strong emphasis on quality service, cleanliness, and safety, ensuring every visitor enjoys a seamless and elevated experience. The Event Server will be responsible for greeting guests warmly, taking precise orders, serving both food and beverages with a keen attention to detail, handling payment transactions, and supporting various guest service needs from the moment guests arrive until their departure. Key to success in this role is the ability to communicate effectively and build positive relationships with coworkers and patrons alike, contributing to a welcoming atmosphere that upholds City Winery’s reputation. The Server will also play an essential role in promoting special events, marketing initiatives, and sales incentives, thus helping to maximize revenue and guest engagement. Staff members at City Winery are encouraged to deepen their brand knowledge, participate in ongoing training sessions, tastings, and meetings that enhance their expertise and ability to provide informed recommendations. Given the multifunctional nature of the venue combining live music and culinary arts, the role demands flexibility, composure, and professionalism, especially when navigating venue conditions such as tight spaces or loud environments. Event Servers must be physically capable to stand or walk for the entirety of their shifts, handle lifting up to 50 pounds, and perform duties such as setup, breakdown, and maintaining cleanliness of their work areas. City Winery values teamwork and expects its Servers to contribute positively, supporting each other through all shifts while always maintaining a neat and well-groomed appearance in alignment with company policies. Joining City Winery offers more than just a job; it is joining a community that values diversity, creativity, and passionate service, making every shift an opportunity to be a part of something truly special.
