Bartender - Café Americain at Clayton Hotel Amsterdam American

Step behind the bar at Café Americain — an iconic, Art Deco dining landmark in the heart of Amsterdam’s bustling Leidseplein.

We’re looking for a passionate and professional Bartender to create more than just great drinks — we want someone who brings energy, skill, and top-tier hospitality to every shift. From signature cocktails to expertly poured beers and barista coffee, you’ll help shape the atmosphere and deliver standout experiences to guests from all over the world.

Clayton Hotel Amsterdam American, part of the Dalata Hotel Group, is a 4-star, 173-room hotel nestled in one of the most beautiful art nouveau buildings in the Netherlands. Home to the legendary Café Americain and stylish Bar Americain, we serve guests from around the world with a culinary experience that’s as memorable as the setting.

Objective of the Role

As a Bartender at Café Americain, you’ll be the face behind the bar — crafting cocktails, pouring wines, brewing coffee, and elevating every guest experience with personality and precision. Whether it’s a relaxed afternoon aperitif or a buzzing Friday night crowd, you’ll serve with style, speed, and confidence.

You’ll keep the bar running smoothly, stocked, and sparkling, while working closely with the service team to ensure seamless, high-energy operations from morning until late. This is a fast-paced, hands-on role — ideal for bartenders who thrive under pressure and love creating standout service moments.

Key Responsibilities

Deliver Standout Service

• Prepare and serve a wide range of beverages — from signature cocktails and premium spirits to wines, beers, and specialty coffees — to the highest standard.
• Welcome guests warmly, provide expert drink recommendations, and engage with charm and professionalism.

Own Your Bar

• Keep the bar clean, organised, and fully stocked at all times.
• Monitor inventory, restock efficiently, and minimise waste with smart stock rotation and usage.

Know Your Products

• Stay up to date with our drink menu, seasonal specials, and pairings — we’ll support you with training, but curiosity is key.
• Share stories behind our signature serves to elevate the guest experience.

Work as One Team

• Communicate clearly with floor staff and the kitchen to ensure smooth, coordinated service.
• Support and guide team members or interns when needed.

Stay Sharp, Stay Safe

• Follow hygiene, safety, and alcohol service guidelines at all times.
• Proactively manage guest concerns or complaints using Dalata service standards and always aim to turn things around positively.

What We’re Looking For

We’re looking for a Bartender who combines skill, personality, and professionalism to create memorable guest moments — drink after drink, shift after shift. Here’s what makes a great fit:

• At least 2 years of bartending experience in a dynamic hospitality environment
• Solid knowledge of spirits, cocktails, wines, beers, and barista-style coffee — or a strong eagerness to learn
• MBO Level 2-3 working and thinking level (or equivalent)
• Comfortable using POS systems (preferably Micros)
• Fluent in English (bonus points for Dutch or any other languages you speak!)
• Creative, energetic, and calm under pressure
• A team player who communicates clearly and thrives in busy environments
• Flexibility to work evenings, weekends, and holidays
• Awareness of allergen legislation and commitment to responsible alcohol service

If you’re passionate about mixology, hospitality, and making people feel welcome — we’d love to hear from you.
