Job Description

Bar Manager – Cana (Unordinary Hospitality Group)

Cana is a Brazilian cocktail bar and restaurant rooted in vibrant South American spirit, located in the heart of Adams Morgan and part of the Unordinary Hospitality Group. Our concept celebrates Brazil — from cachaça to caipirinhas, from Authentic Brazilian culinary roots to contemporary flavors and techniques.


This is more than just a management position. We’re looking for someone who is passionate about cocktails, leadership, and guest experience — someone who can take ownership of the bar, guide a team, and raise the standard every shift. The Bar Manager will work closely with ownership and upper management to execute an evolving beverage program, lead staff training, and serve as a cultural anchor for the bar’s energy and hospitality.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Act as the face of Cana’s bar , representing the venue with charisma, integrity, and professionalism

  • Lead the day-to-day operations of the bar team — from service flow to prep standards to team morale

  • Execute, maintain, and evolve the cocktail program , working in collaboration with leadership on menu development and seasonal changes

  • Train, mentor, and coach bartenders and support staff to deliver consistent and elevated service

  • Ensure adherence to cleanliness, sanitation, safety, and inventory procedures

  • Handle scheduling, purchasing, cost tracking, and vendor management in partnership with upper management

  • Participate in industry events and community building to extend Cana’s reach in DC’s hospitality scene

Qualifications:

  • Minimum 2 years of experience as a bar manager or senior bartender in a high-volume, quality-focused venue

  • Deep knowledge of spirits, cocktails, wine, and bar operations

  • Proven leadership and team development experience

  • Strong organizational and communication skills

  • Genuine love of hospitality, collaboration, and guest satisfaction

  • Comfortable working in a fast-paced, high-energy environment

  • Strong network or ties to the DC hospitality industry is a big plus

  • Bilingual (English/Portuguese or Spanish) is a bonus, not a requirement

Compensation & Perks:

  • Competitive hourly + tip share or salaried structure (based on experience)

  • Paid Time Off

  • Health insurance + wellness perks

  • Complimentary daily meals

  • Dining discounts across Unordinary Hospitality properties

  • Ongoing opportunities for growth and development within our group

Interested?

We’re ready to meet someone who wants to take ownership of a bar program with purpose, creativity, and soul.

Saúde.
