Urgent!! Bartender/host for lunchtime corporate event .TODAY!!

$10

Melbourne VIC, Australia

17th Sep 2025

PROFESSIONAL HELP NEEDED!! I have a corporate event kicking off in just over three hours time and my host/bartender has just called in sick. I desperately need a host or hostess who is also a wizz behind the bar to take care of 25 international guests by setting bar up, greeting on arrival and giving a quick tour, making a selection of cocktails for 2 hours, farewell and clean up. 4 hours total. Only message if youre reliable, know what the role entails and need little to no direction, and are available to come to CBD office building in next hour or so. ++ incentives!

Bella was an absolute legend. Stepped in last minute, like right in the final hour, to take over from our host who had pulled the pin. Bella was exemplary in meeting our 23 international guests who didn't stop raving about her skills behind the bar and the professional manner she exhibited. I highly recommend Bella and FMR Event Services; I doubt the day would have been the success it was without her assistance. Bravo 👏
