Queenstown Wharf Bar – Queenstown, South Island

Set right on the pier with panoramic lake views, Queenstown Wharf Bar is the newest spot to eat, drink, and unwind in the heart of town. We’re serving up wood-fired pizzas, craft beers, world-class cocktails, and fresh, local fare — all with the energy and warmth that make Queenstown hospitality famous.

We’re building a passionate, professional team who love what they do and want to be part of something exciting from the very beginning. If you bring good vibes, great skills, and a love for exceptional service, we’d love to meet you.

  • Maintain high standards of service, presentation, and safety
  • Support training, rostering, and performance development
  • Assist with stock control, ordering, and daily cash‑up
  • Manage guest enquiries, functions, and complaints with confidence
  • Uphold liquor licensing and health & safety compliance
  • Must be available to begin work December 1st, 2025

What We’re Looking For

  • Previous leadership experience in a busy bar or restaurant
  • Strong communication and problem‑solving skills
  • Hands‑on leadership style — leads by example
  • Current Duty Manager’s Certificate (or working toward it)
  • Enthusiasm, adaptability, and a genuine love of hospitality
  • What We Offer

  • Competitive salary or hourly rate + tips
  • Supportive management and training opportunities
  • Staff meals and generous venue discounts
