Waiter/Bar Employee at Rafel (opening soon)

Objective

As a Waiter/Bar employee at Rafel, you will work in a unique waterfront venue where street art, local food, music, and hospitality come together. You welcome guests in the restaurant, at the bar, on the terrace, and during events.

Whether guests visit for a meal, a drink by the water, live music, art, or a private gathering, you provide approachable and personal service. You feel at home in a vibrant environment where hospitality, art, and events seamlessly blend together.

Daily tasks

You start your shift by preparing the bar, restaurant, terrace, or event space. You review reservations and scheduled activities, restock supplies, and ensure everything is ready to welcome guests.

During service, you greet guests, take orders, and advise them on our locally sourced, accessible menu and beverage selection. You maintain an overview of operations and easily switch between the bar, restaurant, terrace, and event spaces.

Scheduled for a bar shift? Behind the bar, you prepare and serve coffee, wine, beer, cocktails, and non-alcoholic beverages.

During events, you assist with setup, guest reception, and execution. From live performances and DJ nights to group reservations and private events, you adapt quickly and contribute to a smooth and successful operation.

Teamwork and collaboration

You will be part of a fun and energetic team. Together, you communicate clearly, support one another when needed, and ensure that every guest experiences Rafel as a welcoming and memorable destination.

Qualifications and skills

Experience in hospitality, food service, or bar operations is a plus.
You enjoy working in different areas, including restaurant service, bar service, terrace operations, and events.
You communicate easily with guests and colleagues and remain calm under pressure.

Working conditions

Varied shifts during the day, evening, and night in the restaurant, bar, terrace, and event spaces.
Flexible working hours, including weekends and public holidays.
A dynamic and sometimes fast-paced environment.

Working at Rafel

Rafel is a street art-inspired bar and restaurant located on Amsterdam’s waterfront, just a five-minute walk from Amsterdam Central Station. Hidden beneath the railway tracks, among tunnels, bridges, and boardwalks, you’ll find a raw and creative destination where local food, drinks, and culture come together.

With a restaurant and bar, a covered waterside terrace, and space for music, art, workshops, group bookings, and events, no two shifts are ever the same. You’ll work in a creative and welcoming environment where quality and professional hospitality go hand in hand with an informal atmosphere.
