Are you a people person who could chat to absolutely anyone? Love Sydney, hospitality and making someone’s day? This could be the role for you. 

With Opera Bar reopening this October, we’re building our team for an incredible summer on Sydney Harbour and we’re looking for Guest Experience Officers to join us.

This is a little different from your typical hospitality role.

Our Guest Experience Officers are the all-rounders and personality of the floor. You’ll move throughout the venue, chatting with guests, helping people find exactly what they need and making sure everyone who walks into Opera Bar has an amazing experience.

One minute you might be welcoming tourists visiting Sydney for the first time, the next you’re taking an order on one of our crew phones, recommending another round, helping a table celebrate a special occasion or simply having a great conversation with someone enjoying one of the best views in the city.

Your job? Make people’s day.

What you’ll be doing You’ll be:

• Welcoming guests and creating a brilliant first impression
• Chatting with locals, tourists and visitors from all over the world
• Taking food and drink orders directly from the floor using our crew phones
• Upselling and making recommendations in a genuine, natural way
• Helping guests navigate the venue and answering questions
• Spotting opportunities to make someone’s experience even better
• Supporting the wider floor, bar and service teams wherever needed
• Bringing energy, personality and good vibes to every shift

This is a true all-rounder role, so we’re looking for people who notice what needs doing and jump in.

Who are we looking for? Experience in hospitality, tourism, hotels, events, retail or customer service is great — but personality is huge for this role.

You’ll thrive as a Guest Experience Officer if you:

• Genuinely LOVE talking to people
• Are confident approaching guests rather than waiting for them to approach you
• Have great energy and a naturally warm personality
• Are comfortable recommending and upselling food and drinks
• Can think on your feet and problem-solve
• Love working as part of a busy team
• Aren’t afraid to get stuck in and help wherever you’re needed
• Can stay positive and engaging during high-volume services
• Hold a current NSW RSA

Why Opera Bar? There aren't many workplaces where the Sydney Opera House and Harbour Bridge are your backdrop.

Opera Bar is one of Sydney’s most iconic hospitality venues, welcoming locals and visitors from around the world every day. With the venue relaunching this October, it’s an incredibly exciting time to join the team and be part of its next chapter.

And because we're part of Applejack Hospitality, your opportunities don't stop at Opera Bar. You'll have access to staff benefits across our venues, training and development, team events and opportunities to grow your hospitality career across the group.

Sound like you? If you’re the person who talks to everyone, remembers the little things, loves making people smile and brings great energy into a room, we want to meet you.

Come help us create unforgettable experiences on Sydney Harbour this summer.
