Standards & Safety Lead/Barback at Your 3rd Spot

Standards & Safety Lead / Barback

Where Safety, Standards, and Hospitality Meet the Bar

Pay: $21–$27/hr

This is a hybrid role for people who lead with awareness, integrity, and calm confidence—and who understand that a great guest experience is protected not just at the door, but throughout the room and behind the bar.

You know the first impression sets the tone. You read rooms. You notice patterns. You step in early. And when the bar is humming, you’re the quiet force keeping it stocked, clean, and flowing so the experience never breaks.

As an Standards & Safety Lead / Barback, you are both a guardian of standards and a support engine for the bar team. You help guests feel welcomed, respected, and at ease—while ensuring the space runs safely, smoothly, and at a high level.

About 

Your 3rd Spot is a Social Experience Club™ designed for connection. More than a night out, it’s an immersive space where people discover new experiences and come alive together. 

Guests unlock access to curated games and analog interactions with an Experiences Pass, then “Taste & Connect” through small plates and a beverage program showcasing elevated, creative cocktails, honest pours, and zero-proof options.

Technology simplifies the journey so our team can focus on hospitality.  Every element is designed to create moments that become memories.

A proximity-based membership deepens community ties and turns loyal guests into advocates with daily entry, regular connection events, guest passes and more included.
