Part Time Barista
Whitchurch, Hants RG28 7AD
Part-time – Monday to Friday 07:00 – 13:00hrs
We have a great reputation for serving up fantastic coffee with great customer service and we want our workplace to be just the same, with staff who enjoy the job they do.
Who we’re looking for
We have regular customers along with new people finding us through recommendations from others all the time. Our customers tell us that one of the big reasons they return so often is due to the atmosphere, friendly welcome and attentiveness they receive from the team, so the candidate must be a happy and friendly team member, with customer service at their heart.
You will take pride in your work and will understand that a trip to the coffee shop isn’t just about finding a great cup of coffee, or slice of cake, it’s about the whole experience. Customers should walk away having enjoyed every aspect of the visit, wanting to return again, and this should stem from you and your team.
