Daytime Café Manager — Alma King’s Cross


Alma is a wellness-oriented café brand with a growing footprint across London. We're looking for an experienced Café Manager to lead our King’s Cross location — a high-energy, fast-paced site serving a diverse mix of locals, commuters, and regulars who expect quality and consistency every day.


This is a role for someone who takes pride in running a sharp operation, builds a strong team culture, and keeps standards high without needing oversight.


What you'll be doing:


  • Managing the full day-to-day operation of the café, including opening and closing
  • Leading and developing a team of 6 in a busy, high-footfall environment
  • Maintaining service and quality standards across coffee, smoothies, and breakfast
  • Handling staff scheduling, coordination, and performance management
  • Keeping on top of stock, waste, and supplier deliveries
  • Working closely with senior leadership and contributing to ongoing brand growth

What we're looking for:


  • 1–2 years in a café or hospitality management role
  • A confident leader who sets the tone — calm, consistent, and hands-on
  • Strong operational awareness: you stay ahead of issues before they escalate
  • Comfortable managing pace and pressure in a busy London location
  • Genuine warmth with customers and a focus on building repeat business
  • Experience with staff scheduling, stock control, and team development

What we offer:


  • Starting salary of £14–£15 per hour depending on experience, plus TRONC
  • Daytime hours only — no evenings
  • Enrolment into the company pension scheme after 3 months
  • Staff food during every shift
  • Unlimited hot drinks
  • A fast-growing brand with real opportunity to progress as Alma expands

Great cafés don’t run themselves. If you’re the one who makes it happen — especially in a high-energy location like King’s Cross — we want to hear from you.
