- Create original, memorable cocktails and mocktails that elevate the guest experience.
- Collaborate with the Director of Operations to develop and present new beverage concepts to ownership.
- Apply strong knowledge of tequila, mezcal, agave spirits, and craft cocktail techniques.
- Build vendor relationships and source premium spirits, specialty ingredients, and innovative products.
- Manage recipe costing and beverage cost percentages while maintaining quality and creativity.
- Develop standardized recipes and presentation guidelines.
What We’re Looking For
- Experience in craft cocktails, mixology, or beverage development.
- Strong tequila, mezcal, and spirits knowledge.
- Creativity, a passion for innovation, and an eye for presentation.
- Understanding of beverage costing, margins, and profitability.
- Strong vendor relationship, communication, and collaboration skills.
- A passion for luxury hospitality and creating memorable guest experiences.
