Job description

City Wine Shop is offering an exciting career opportunity for a highly motivated and enthusiastic Sommelier to join our wine team.

Our wine and beverage program is at the heart of our hospitality group, supporting City Wine Shop, The European, Melbourne Supper Club, Siglo and our newest venue, Kafeneion.

We are looking for someone who genuinely loves wine, is approachable and personable, and is eager to develop their skills through hands-on experience and mentoring. This role is designed for someone looking to build a long-term career in wine, with the opportunity to progress into senior wine positions across our venues and broader business.

About the Position

This is a hands-on role that will initially involve working as a FOH at City Wine Shop, allowing you to develop a strong understanding of our service standards, food offering and customers.

From there, you will be trained across our wine program and given the opportunity to work within the wine team in a variety of capacities, including sommelier and wine retail.

This position would suit an experienced waiter who has mastered the fundamentals of service in a quality one-hat restaurant or wine bar, as well as a junior sommelier looking for their next opportunity and a clear pathway into a wine-focused career.

About You

We are looking for someone who:

  • Is passionate about wine and looking to build a career in the wine industry
  • Has a genuine appreciation for food, wine and hospitality
  • Has a strong eye for detail and takes pride in their work
  • Is committed to continually developing their skills and product knowledge
  • Enjoys and thrives in a busy, fast-paced environment
  • Has excellent communication skills and the ability to build strong relationships with customers and colleagues
  • Holds WSET Level 3 or CMS certification (preferred but not essential)
  • Has experience with POS and inventory systems, as well as Microsoft Office
  • Has a strong work ethic, positive attitude and a genuine willingness to learn
  • Is available to work flexible hours across a five-day roster

What We Offer

  • The opportunity to work with an extensive wine collection representing the great wine regions of the world, alongside a dynamic by-the-glass program
  • A structured wine training program, including visits to local producers and sessions with international winemakers
  • Ongoing opportunities to develop your wine knowledge across our restaurants, wine bars and retail businesses
  • Cheese training and product education with our team at Spring Street Grocer
  • A five-day roster with no split shifts and two consecutive days off
  • Great tips and generous staff discounts on wine to support your own wine journey
  • Mentoring from experienced wine professionals
  • Genuine opportunities for career development and progression within one of Melbourne's most established and respected hospitality groups
