You’re outgoing, confident, and great with people, with a natural feel for reading the room and setting the tone at the door. You stay cool under pressure and make quick, smart calls when it counts.

● Assist with ID checks as needed.

● Monitor capacity and help maintain smooth entry throughout the night.

Safety & Awareness

● Identify and appropriately handle intoxicated or disruptive guests.

● Support the security team with communication and incident awareness.

● De-escalate situations calmly and professionally when needed.

Qualifications & Experience

● Previous experience in hospitality, nightlife, or guest-facing roles

● Love country lifestyle (boots and hat strongly encouraged!)

● Strong communication and interpersonal skills

● Ability to stand for long periods and work in all weather conditions

● Availability Thursday–Sunday evenings and holidays

● Serving It Right certification

Preferred (but not required):

● Opportunities for growth in a dynamic, fast-paced organization, with hands-on exposure across diverse operations, live events, hospitality, and entertainment projects.

● A collaborative culture that celebrates creativity and innovation.

● Access to unique experiences across The MRG Group’s diverse portfolio (free concerts!)

If you’re ready to dust off your boots, thrive in high-energy nightlife and create great first impressions, we want you on our team!
