OVERVIEW

Ritual Coffee is seeking a hard-working and enthusiastic barista to create experiences that change the way people know coffee. We are looking for that special someone who is dedicated to customer service, teamwork, and quality to work in our Flagship cafe on Valencia Street.

As our new barista, you do not need to know our exact systems and techniques before you start, but you need to be self-aware and humble to be able to jump in, be helpful and problem-solve where needed.

ABOUT US: RITUAL IS CHANGING THE WAY PEOPLE KNOW COFFEE.

In 2005, when corporate coffee dominated American culture, Ritual unknowingly started a fun and exciting revolution that would ultimately help launch the new coffee movement.

We buy 90+% of our beans from producer partners that we have relationships with, setting the highest standard in the industry. This makes sure we get our hands on the best beans in the world, but more importantly, makes sure our farmers maintain the quality of life they deserve.

Now a bona fide San Francisco original, we've also earned our iconic status as one of the best coffee roasting companies in the world. The mission of Ritual Coffee is simple: to make people happy by giving them the best coffee experience they've ever had. Ritual roasts in SoMa, and has cafes in San Francisco and Napa.

DIVERSITY AT RITUAL: COFFEE IS FOR EVERYONE

We are passionate about creating safe, welcoming, and inclusive spaces on both sides of the counter and behind the scenes at Ritual. We best achieve our mission (making people happy by giving them the best coffee experience we've ever had) when our staff reflects the broad diversity of people who love coffee. Our commitment to inclusion across race, gender identity, gender expression, ethnicity, age, religion, sexual orientation, physical ability, experience, and perspective is part of what makes Ritual the innovative place that it is.
