Coffee-Jobs in Großbritannien

CONA is a unique conceptual space combining a specialty coffee shop and a nail salon. The two businesses exist as separate entities, so customers can still come in and enjoy a beautiful cup of coffee without getting a manicure, and vice versa.

CONA has great ambitions to be a destination for great specialty coffee and will be needing a Senior Barista to help us along the way.

We have the best equipment on hand so that you can show off your skills and take pride in your work. We use La Marzocco’s KB90, Mahlkonig E80 and EK43. Currently, our house blend is by Square Mile and we are featuring Manhattan Roaster as our guest. Our guest coffees change seasonally, and we are also introducing pour overs to the menu.

We’re looking for friendly and knowledgeable part-time Senior Barista to join us in brewing the best coffees. You will be responsible for providing great, genuine customer service, being able to produce drinks to a consistently high standard and train new staff who join the team.

Our ideal candidate will be expected to dial-in espresso to the required recipe, steam milk to perfect consistency and texture, and be able to impress customers with great latte art. Our batch brew also requires a keen palette, especially with the ever changing coffees and origins; comprehending the taste of under-extraction and over-extraction will be key.

And in anticipation to launching pour-overs to the menu, some insight and expertise in brewing by hand will be useful. We would like our ideal candidate to have the confidence in guiding customers through our menu, so having extensive knowledge to speak about the differences between our house-blend espresso, single-origin espresso and our batch brew.

Not only that, but we also pride ourselves in being a good chat, taking the extra effort in getting to know our customers: remembering their names, checking in on their plans, knowing their order before they’ve ordered it and just being an-all-round extrovert.

You will be working closely with the manager, who will lean on you for support in maintaining the high-standards for both coffee, cleanliness and customer service. We would also appreciate an all-rounder who will be happy to assist in the daily operations of the café such as tidying, cashing up and handling pastries.

We will be prioritising candidates who can start immediately.

If you are interested in the position, please email your CV and tell us a little about yourself to info@cona.london, as messages through the website can get lost in the ether.

Benefits include paid breaks every shift, free staff meals and drinks, staff discounts on coffee training, nails and retail.
