• Prepare our much-loved products, including making sandwiches and managing the ovens
• Ensure our displays are fully stocked at all times, with plenty of choice available for our customers
• Keep the shop looking clean, tidy and presentable

About you

• You’ll be reliable and demonstrate natural leadership abilities, with a passion for delivering exceptional customer service.
• You’ll also be supportive of an inclusive culture - recognising and valuing that difference is good.
• If you’ve got previous team supervisory experience in a similar, customer-focused environment, we want to hear from you.
