Compass Rose LA / / Bartender / / Job Description

About :

Maydan Market has opened in LA’s West Adams neighborhood, the first West Coast project by Rose Previte, Founder of DC’s Michelin-starred Maydan, Compass Rose, Medina, and Kirby Club restaurants. Maydan in DC first opened in 2017 drawing critical acclaim as Best New Restaurant in Bon Appetit, FOOD & WINE, and GQ, nominated by the James Beard Foundation for both Best New Restaurant and Outstanding Wine Program, and earning a Michelin star. Compass Rose opened in 2014 winning the RAMMY for best casual restaurant in the nation’s capital and one of the Washington Post’s “Favorite Places to Eat.”

This new 10,000-square-foot market will be a home for small businesses to flourish, anchored by a live fire hearth, like its DC namesake restaurant. Inspired by markets from around the world, Maydan Market will bring diverse gems together under one roof including a Maydan restaurant and bar; Compass Rose, an indoor / outdoor patio bar with bites, cocktails, and natural wine; and will be home to five Los Angeles food businesses each with their own distinctive cuisine and critical acclaim.

Maydan Market, part of the No White Plates collective, is an experience-driven venue where rich traditions and exceptional hospitality converge. Our mission is to create an inviting workplace culture grounded in thoughtful communication, respect, and a commitment to excellence. We believe that a remarkable dining, beverage, and event experience begins with hiring and training motivated individuals who embody empathy and a strong work ethic. Our menu is an homage to the people who taught us about their heritage from across Morocco, Tunisia, Turkey, Lebanon, and the Republic of Georgia, showcasing superior food and beverage products sourced from dedicated vendors. At Maydan, we strive to inspire and empower our team, fostering a supportive and safe environment with benefits like paid time off, healthcare, and extensive educational opportunities
