Kananaskis Country Golf Course is quite simply a special and different place. Literally and figuratively, it is a breath of fresh air. What makes it so special? Certainly, our setting doesn't hurt! We are located in the middle of the spectacular Canadian Rockies about 55 minutes west of Calgary and 45 minutes from Banff; paradise if you are the kind of person who enjoys a fun environment surrounded by nature, tremendous hiking, kayaking, rollerblading, and camping. But the setting doesn't even begin to tell our story. The secret to this special place for over 35 years has been our team!

So, down to the nitty gritty, what is this long-winded Job posting for?
Restaurant Overview:
The Summit is the restaurant located on the property at Kananaskis Country Golf Course. This restaurant has been created to challenge the paradigm of conventional golf course restaurants in that it is built for everyone visiting Kananaskis, not just golfers. We want to be the local spot for gathering, while understanding that we do serve guests from all around the world, all throughout the season. Our menu will focus on being approachable yet culinary refined while allowing people to share everything. The service will be friendly, engaging and knowledgeable to create a sense of being known with all our guests. The environment will be upbeat, fun, unpretentious, and filled with gratitude, all of which will create a "feel" that guests will want to return to again and again. The experience we will provide here will be unique to Kananaskis through all of these details.
Job Overview:
At The Summit, we entrust our bartenders with a great deal of responsibility. You are the face of our guests' experience, and your service will be the primary factor in dictating whether our customers will return, and what sort of feedback they will share with their friends and on social media. No amount of delicious food or drink can make up for inattentive, unprepared or unfriendly service. Our primary focus is to make our guests feel welcome, comfortable, relaxed and important. Our bartenders take pride in their craft and strive to personalize each and every guest experience. Bartenders are responsible for understanding our menu inside and out, keeping their bar clean and organized, and of course, treating all guests with the respect and care they deserve. A great bartender anticipates their guests' needs and customizes their service style to suit the personality and mood of each guest. The Summit bartenders are always smiling and sharing their thanks with guests because they genuinely love being a part of memorable experiences.
