Bartender

We are looking for a Bartender to join our growing team at The Ministry – the world’s best workspace, with a background in high-end cocktail bars, members clubs or hotels.

As a member of the Bar Team, you are the personality and the expert of our offering. You have a great knowledge of cocktails, wines, beers, and spirits and are keen to perfect your repertoire through training, visits to suppliers/manufacturers and menu development.

You’ll inject your positive energy into every moment and provide a personable service to ensure our renowned workspace delivers the best member experience.

You’ll work closely with your team to create a welcoming and friendly atmosphere our members, visitors, team and talent will thrive in.

You will be eager to learn, develop and be open to all aspects of the business; no job is too small!

You will be proactive and have motivation, energy and attention to detail at the forefront of everything you do. You will uphold an organised, impeccably clean and well-presented environment for anyone who visits for The Ministry experience.

You’ll be communicating with your bar manager alongside the events team, Community Managers and General Managers.

Creativity is in your blood and drink development is something you are passionate about. Although we have a creative, expert team, our success is derived only from your help, opinions, and trust to create fantastic drink experiences for everyone who visits.

You will be excited to collaborate with all areas within the business.

A capacity for hard work, a natural ability to get on with people, a passion for London’s BEST beverages and a sense of humour are a must. We channel FUN into everything that we do.

This is a brilliant opportunity for someone who wants to grow professionally and personally, shaping the future of food and beverage at the Ministry – the best workspace in the world.

Experience in a high-end cocktail bar would be advantageous.

ABOUT US

Ministry of Sound opened in 1991 in a disused bus garage in a forgotten corner of South London. It was the first nightclub in the UK to have a 24-hour licence, didn’t serve alcohol and featured an earth-shaking sound system in a specially constructed dance box.

We went on to become the world’s largest independent record company (now owned by Sony) and stage giant dance events, including one for 50,000 people at the Millennium Dome. We were pioneers in electronic music and have a history of taking risks, innovation, and colourful and creative marketing.

As a business, we don’t take ourselves too seriously, and like to laugh and have fun, but we have high standards, relentless attention to detail and the continuous improvement of our product, and we work hard as a team.

We hate cliché, doing things the way others do and continuously seek to differentiate our brands and products almost as a point of pride.

Thirty years later we opened The Ministry, a workspace run as a member’s club, in a 50,000 sq. ft Victorian warehouse in SE1. There’s excellent F&B, a state-of-the-art gym and fitness studio with daily classes, together with a cultural and business events programme. The design is relaxed but functional with a bar, opening windows, an outside courtyard and plenty of space to sit, relax, work and socialise – everything you wouldn’t expect to find in a standard office.

This role sits across all of our businesses.
