The Role
We're looking for an experienced Bar Manager who genuinely loves hospitality and understands that a great bar is about far more than pouring great drinks.




This is an opportunity to lead the bar at the heart of one of Melbourne's most exciting independent hospitality venues. You'll be responsible for creating memorable guest experiences, developing an exceptional team and continually refining every aspect of the bar operation.
Reporting directly to the General Manager, you'll also work closely with Founder Steve Jeffares (co-founder of Stomping Ground Brewery, The Local Taphouse and the GABS Festivals) to continually evolve our drinks program, refine our bar systems and build one of Melbourne's best-trained hospitality teams.
This is a hands-on leadership role. You'll spend the majority of your busiest shifts behind the bar, coaching your team, engaging with guests, solving problems and setting the standard to keep the whole operation running smoothly.
Key Responsibilities
Lead all day-to-day bar operations
Recruit, train and inspire a high-performing bar team
Deliver exceptional service and memorable guest experiences
Curate and continually evolve our independent beer, wine and cocktail program

Further develop and continually refine our Bar Training Program, building a confident, knowledgeable hospitality team
Drive beverage quality, consistency and speed of service
Manage ordering, inventory, cellar operations and beverage costs
Monitor labour, profitability and key performance indicators
Work closely with the kitchen, events and marketing teams to deliver seamless guest experiences
Maintain the highest standards of presentation, compliance, cleanliness and safety
About You
You'll have several years' experience leading a busy,



high-quality hospitality venue where exceptional service was simply the standard.
More importantly...
You're a natural leader who enjoys coaching and developing people.
You thrive in busy service and love leading from the floor.
You understand that great hospitality is about people first.
You have excellent knowledge of independent beer, wine and cocktails.
You have experience maintaining draft beer quality, including line cleaning and basic fault finding.
You appreciate both operational discipline and genuine hospitality.
You're calm, organised and make good decisions under pressure.
You enjoy building systems that make everyone's job easier.
You're constantly looking for ways to improve the guest experience.
You believe great venues never stop evolving.
Why You'll Love It Here
Lead the bar in one of Melbourne's most impressive new hospitality venues.
Be part of a venue that's already thriving and preparing for an even bigger summer.
Help shape one of Melbourne's most exciting independent drinks programs.
Have genuine input into our beer, wine and cocktail offering.
Join a culture that values people, continual improvement and doing things properly.
Competitive salary, performance bonuses and genuine opportunities to grow.
At Huzzah, we're not standing still.
Every month we're refining our drinks, our food, our systems and our guest experience. We're building the kind of neighbourhood pub we'd all want to have around the corner - professionally run, genuinely ambitious and always improving.
If you'd love the opportunity to lead a busy bar, develop a fantastic team and help shape one of Melbourne's best hospitality venues, we'd love to hear from you.
