Beverage Runner

Oak View Group is hiring part-time beverage runners at Benchmark International Arena in Tampa, home of the Tampa Bay Lightning. Runners support the bar, concessions, and suite teams in several parts of the arena during games and other events.

The work is about keeping service points stocked. You carry drinks, hot boxes, and speed racks between the kitchen, the pantry, and the suites, restock supplies, help keep pantry inventory in order, and fix any delivery mistakes quickly. Game day direction comes from the suites manager or suites supervisor, and shifts start with a pre-game huddle.

At the end of each event you help break down your locations, clean the pantry, and check out with the pantry supervisor or lead runner.

The posted pay is $17.00 to $17.50 an hour, and part-time staff can join the 401(k) plan with a company match. The posting is listed as open until February 5, 2027.
