Job description

You know that preparing delicious hot beverages is something of an art form, and you’ll have the communication skills required for your role too – consistently positive, enthusiastic, helpful and ready to adapt to changing service needs. Whether that’s managing the queue if there’s a rush of customers, or serving someone with a foodallergy.

Our coffee bar concept rivals major high street competitors both in terms of what we offer, and because our customer service standards are high, and you’ll ensure these standards are always maintained. You see customers as individuals and can readily respond to their requests, ensuring they’re engaged when they arrive at the counter and stay that way until they leave – feeling happy and ready to recommend us to others.

You’ll come to us with confidence in cash handling and using tills, plus you will know how important good merchandising and stock rotation is – making sure our tempting food is available throughout the day. We’d prefer you to have experience in a service environment dealing with customers, and we will provide you with the training and development you need to grow your career with us.
