Head Bartender

Nettare
Chicago, IL
The Compensation & Benefits
  • Total Estimated Cash Comp: $60,000 – $68,000.
  • Pay Structure: This includes a base salary, plus participation in our service fee distribution and tip pool.
  • Healthcare: $250/month healthcare coverage is included.
  • Paid Time Off: We offer above-standard PTO and sick leave policies.
  • Quarterly Bonuses: You are eligible for our profitability bonus program, which is triggered when the company hits seasonal profit baselines.
  • The Hours: The expected workload is 45 hours per week, with scheduling organized by our General Manager.
The Day-to-Day

This role is service-heavy and reports directly to the owner, Conner, and our GM, Jacy. While you are the lead for the bar, you aren't managing staff directly; your focus is on the floor and the systems that keep the bar running smoothly:

  • Active Service: Your primary responsibility is being behind the bar, making drinks, and taking care of guests. You will also be asked to take floor shifts serving tables as needed.
  • Inventory & Ordering: You will conduct weekly inventory and manage all liquor, beer, and wine ordering.
  • Menu & Digital Systems: We use Margin Edge for recipe tracking and maintain a running menu guide on Google Docs. We’re looking for someone with the tech-savviness to keep this data accurate and up to date.
  • Technical Knowledge: You will act as a primary resource for the team and guests regarding producers and production methods.
  • Standards & Maintenance: You will oversee nightly checklists, manage prep lists, and ensure the bar stays dialed in and organized.
The Vibe

Our hospitality is built on being intentional and professional without being stiff. We curate unique offerings and make very specific choices in our beverage program, and we need a Head Bartender who can communicate that expertise in a way that feels welcoming to everyone who walks through the door. Because we are a neighborhood spot, we see a lot of regulars; we value personalized service that feels natural and grounded in genuine experience.
