About the role
Our bar is an extension of the Il Migliore experience: classic and Italian-inspired cocktails, the ritual of aperitivo, a considered selection of amari and fine wines poured with care. We’re seeking bartenders with craft, speed and presence, who treat a seat at the bar as one of the best in the house. About Il Migliore Il Migliore is a premier Italian dining destination in the heart of Boca Raton. We practice cucina italiana contemporanea: Italy’s regional culinary traditions, expressed through original recipes, innovative technique and chef-driven artistry, with an unwavering commitment to excellence. Our kitchen is built on artisanal ingredients, hand-crafted pastas, responsibly sourced seafood and premium meats. Our cellar holds iconic Italian producers, rare vintages and exceptional bottlings from around the world. From the dining room to our private dining spaces, we are committed to hospitality of the highest order, and to being recognized among the finest Italian restaurants in the region: culinarily, culturally and operationally.

Before you apply
Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.
Your profile is current
It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.
Two examples you can talk through
Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.
A number in mind
What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.
Your notice period
Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.
Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
