The Battery needs a mechanical bull operator, hundreds of other staff
Three spots at The Battery Atlanta are going to need some help to make the multi-use dream outside the Braves’ SunTrust Park a reality.
Todd English Tavern, Sports & Social and PBR Atlanta announced their need to hire 400 employees ahead of their openings planned for April and May.
Together, the trio is called “Live! at the Battery Atlanta” and will be owned by the Cordish Companies. ECI — Cordish’s subsidiary that manages restaurants, bars and clubs — will run the two-story set-up.
Those 400 workers can apply online to do anything from serve tables at English's upscale restaurant, to cook pub grub, to operate the mechanical bull at the Professional Bill Riders's cowboy bar.
The Battery was billed as a reason for Braves fans to come early and stay late after ballgames drinking, eating and having fun.
During the off-season, the area is supposed to serve folks heading to the dozens of shows planned for the The Coca-Cola Roxy Theatre.
It's also designed for people who work in the Cumberland area who will be able to walk across the multi-use pedestrian bridge to grab lunch or a drink — there's 10 bars between the three Live! establishments alone.
All three locations are hiring a variety of staff members.
