- Strong leadership, organisation and communication skills
- Proven experience as a barista and in managing cafe operations

- Ability to motivate and inspire a team while maintaining a fun and productive work environment
- Ability to handle multiple responsibilities and stay calm under pressure

**Why Join Us?**
- Great culture (unusual we know)
- Monday to Friday only (with backup availability in case of weekend emergencies)
- Competitive salary based on experience and vibe
- Opportunity to work in a vibrant, community-focused espresso bar

If you’re ready to take the next step in your coffee career and make a meaningful impact on our cafe, we’d love to hear from you
