About the Role
Step inside and the city falls away. You enter a house of rooms unlike any other; part gallery, part salon, part bar. Heritage is the fabric of every space: from the long communal table in the main hall to intimate chambers that echo the mansion’s layered past. Each room tells its own story of tea and textiles, journeys and remedies, yet together they weave one society. Behind this house of spirits, seasonal ingredients meet global traditions, crafted into vessels by skilled ceramicists. Guests move from chamber to chamber, discovering shifting moods of conversation, music, and ritual. This is a place to drink well, but also to belong – where every visit feels connected to the past yet alive in the present, evolving with each season and collaboration.
Every gathering is a weave of moments, places, and people.
As a Senior Bartender, you bring confidence and consistency behind the bar, shaping each guest’s experience with precision and presence. Beyond crafting drinks, you support the team in driving smooth operations, guiding junior bartenders, and upholding the highest standards of service and professionalism. With a strong foundation in classic techniques and product knowledge, you contribute to every service with assurance while fostering a collaborative and disciplined environment.
This role is for those who lead by example – balancing efficiency with warmth and ensuring every moment at the bar reflects the venue’s character, culture, and commitment to excellence.
