Bartender

Located in Canada Water and developed as a collaboration between Broadwick Spaces and KERB, Corner Corner is a vibrant space that combines food, music, and community. With a rotating selection of food vendors and immersive cultural programming, Corner Corner is a destination for creativity, connection, and collaboration.

• Excellent people skills, confident talking to our guests and traders
• An eye for spotting upselling opportunities
• A positive and flexible attitude, with the ability to think laterally and willing to problem solve
• An awareness of the licensing objectives
• A love of brilliant food and drink
• Availability to work weekends and evenings
• 1 year experience in bartending however this isn’t a dealbreaker
