Anyone who can legally work in Canada can apply for this job. If you are not currently authorized to work in Canada, the employer will not consider your job application.

Come join our amazing team at Big Bear Eatery and Taphouse!

We are looking for full-time bartenders. If you have years of experience slinging cocktails, but are craving an early bedtime, this is a great position for you!

Serving up a massive menu of cocktails that are blended, shaken, muddled, and mixed, this is not an ideal position for a pub-style bartender.

We are offering what we consider a competitive wage for the position, as well as tip out from servers, and the opportunity to take tables as well as bar seats for more tip potential. If you consider yourself over qualified for the position we encourage you to reach out to discuss how we can work together.

Our goal at Big Bear is to deliver an uncompromisingly high level of service to all The Yukon's residents, and the territory’s guests. Do you feel like becoming an essential part of our premier Yukon liquor industry team? Are you ready to work hard and shine for our customers, our team, our suppliers, and yourself?

If the answer is Yes, we want you!
