• Make fantastic coffee… and matcha… and seasonal drinks… every order is special! From bean to cup, they make each customer their coffee, exactly how they like it!
• Keep the customer and back-of-house areas safe, clean, organised and ready for service. Some examples would be cleaning tables or ensuring toilets are kept to the high standards our customers expect.
• Always strive for excellence!

What you can expect:

• Performance related bonus of between £3,500 - £5,500 per annum (dependant on role and store).
• Brilliant training and development, to get you up to speed in your role and beyond.
• The opportunity to grow your career and develop personally.
• Unlimited free handmade drinks and up to 75% off food and packaged drinks when you're on shift.
• 50% off all handmade drinks and 40% off everything else when you're off shift.
• Recommend A Friend Scheme, giving you the chance to earn up to £750 if you refer new people to join the team.
• Cash Plan Healthcare scheme.
• Length of service recognition.
• Access to our benefits platform, with hundreds of discounts, rewards and offers.

To be successful:

Maybe you're looking to take the next step in your career journey? Perhaps you want a move into the growing world of coffee? You might already be a Store Manager and love the Caffè Nero brand. Whatever you're doing, if you have experience of leading, developing and nurturing a team in a busy, customer facing environment, we would love to hear from you.

Why choose us?

When you join us, you're joining a group of caring, supportive and friendly people - whether that's your team, the regular customers of your café or your community. You'll be part of building something special and have loads of fun along the way - that could be at one of our regular Caffè Nero Club parties, our Barista of the Year Competition or grabbing you and your team an award at our End of Year celebration. There's something for everyone.

And it doesn't stop there. The opportunities for development are fantastic. Many of our Area and Regional Managers grew their careers in store, and it's the same for our Head Office teams too.

If you have a great attitude, bags of energy and love interacting with customers then we'd love to hear from you!
