Bartender, barback and service work, from cocktail bars to pubs.
On StaffLink, finding bar jobs and finding bar staff happen in the same app: bartenders, barbacks and servers apply for evening and night shifts; bars post jobs, find extra staff for busy nights and plan shifts on one calendar.
Bar work starts in the evening and can run late into the night. Bartenders prepare drinks and cocktails, barbacks handle stock and cleaning, and servers look after tables.
