About the Role
At Hotel Du Vin Cambridge, we believe great minds—and drinks—come together.
If you know your way around a bar, have an eye for wine (pinot vs. chardonnay? Obvs.), and can craft a killer martini, this is your chance to turn what you love into a thriving career for life.
We offer so much more than the average hotel bar: unmatched knowledge, wit, and an unparalleled drinking experience—whether it’s a post-work nash, a pre-night-out cocktail, or part of our full Food & Beverage offering.
We’re not just about servicing drinks—we create unforgettable memories. And here, that could be your springboard to a Bar Manager role—we encourage progression from the ground up.
Key Responsibilities
- Create craft cocktails and drinks with precision and flair
- Build expert wine knowledge and recommend pairings
- Master bar menu operations—timely service, couple counts, and upselling
- Engage with guests with charisma and hospitality
- Work closely with kitchens, sommeliers, and management to elevate the dining experience
- Uphold ** Hotel Du Vin standards** of speed, accuracy, and quality
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Requirements
- Proven bar experience (experience is key, formal training a bonus!)
- Knowledge of whiskies, wines, and spirits
- Ability to multitask under pressure—especially during peak times

- Team player mindset—hospitality thrives on collaboration
