You will help shape unforgettable experiences for visitors at the vineyard and at On Cloud Wine Bar & Restaurant. We encourage growth through hands-on training, staff wine tastings, and opportunities to contribute ideas that enhance our guest experiences. As we expand our footprint across Southeastern Wisconsin, we seek team members ready to grow with us.
