Full job description

Job Title: Bar Staff – Encore Bars Hospitality Group
Location: Edinburgh (various venues)

The Role

We’re looking for friendly, energetic Bar Staff to join our growing Edinburgh bar group. You’ll be working on the front line of our busy venues – making drinks, serving guests, and keeping the bar running smoothly. No experience needed, just a great attitude and willingness to learn.

Our Venues

We currently operate four vibrant bars across Edinburgh: Boston New Town, Boston Old Town, Westside Rodeo, and Freddys – each with its own character, but all united by high standards and a party atmosphere. And we’re not stopping there – more venues are opening soon, so there’s huge room to grow with us.

What You’ll Do (Bar‑Focused)

  • Prepare and serve drinks (pouring pints, making cocktails, serving spirits) to company specification.
  • Keep the bar clean, stocked, and organised throughout your shift.
  • Work as part of a team during busy periods, communicating clearly with floor staff and managers.
  • Follow Challenge 25 and responsible alcohol service at all times.
  • Help create a warm, inviting atmosphere behind the bar and on the front line.
  • Take direction from Supervisors and Managers.

What You’ll Bring

  • A positive, can‑do attitude.
  • Good energy and ability to stay calm under pressure.
  • Reliable, punctual, and available for evenings and weekends.
  • No experience necessary – we’ll train you (but any bar or customer service experience is a bonus).

What We Offer

  • A supportive, fun, fast‑growing hospitality group.
  • Tronc (fair and transparent service charge distribution).
  • Staff discount across all venues.
  • Full training – licensing, cocktails, food hygiene, fire safety, and more.
  • Clear pathway to Supervisor and beyond.
  • A team culture built on “guest first” and “one team”.

Ready to join the Encore family?

Apply now and tell us why you’d be a great fit behind our bars.

Pay: From £12.71 per hour

Expected hours: 14.0 – 40.0 per week

Benefits:

  • Company pension
  • Discounted or free food
  • Employee discount

Application question(s):

  • If you had to choose, which one of our current venues would you prefer to work in and why?

Work Location: In person
