We are expanding our beverage program to include handcrafted espresso and coffee service and are looking for dependable, motivated team members who enjoy customer interaction, health-focused products, and working in a positive, fast-paced environment.

• Supporting events, promotions, and seasonal offerings
• Working as part of a team while also being self-motivated during downtime

Ideal Candidate:

• Has barista, café, restaurant, juice bar, or customer service experience (preferred but willing to train the right person)
• Is dependable, positive, and able to multitask in a fast-paced environment
• Takes initiative and notices what needs to be done without constant direction
• Enjoys health, wellness, coffee culture, or plant-based lifestyles
• Communicates well and works well with a team
• Understands the importance of cleanliness and attention to detail
• Is looking for a position with growth potential, not just short-term work

Bonus Experience:

• Interest in wellness, nutrition, plants, holistic lifestyles, crystals, chakra balance, healing practices, and alternative wellness modalities
