Bring the Spirit of South Africa to London – Join the Vivat Bacchus Family
Do you have charisma, energy, and the ability to light up a room?
Can you shake a cocktail, pour a world-class glass of wine, and also carry a tray with style and grace?
Then you might be the next performer of hospitality we’re looking for.
At Vivat Bacchus, we don’t just hire bartenders. We cast storytellers, hosts, and passionate people who want to create unforgettable experiences, on both sides of the bar.
Primary focus: Bartending – delivering drinks service, wine knowledge, cocktail flair, and great chat.
Also: Table Hosting – waiting tables with warmth, rhythm, and presence when needed.
Flexibility is key. One shift you might be mixing Negronis, the next you’re guiding guests through a South African wine journey.
You’ve got personality, presence, and that rare ability to make every guest feel seen and special.
You feel deeply passionate about South African culture, wine, food, or hospitality.
Comfortable in fast-paced environments — you thrive under pressure and know how to bring the vibe.
You don’t “serve.” You host, entertain, engage, and elevate
