Barista

hace 4 horas138 vistas

Independent, community-focused speciality café in Vauxhall. We’re hiring both full-time and part-time baristas to help us raise the bar—on taste, speed and hospitality experience. Daytime only (Mon–Fri 7:30–16:00; Sat 9:00–15:00).
Grow with a founder-led team where your ideas actually shape the menu, service and standards.


Here, you’re not just making coffee—you’re a host, an educator, a culture-builder. Your service turns first-timers into friends and regulars, and your standards shape what local coffee means.
You’ll help build a local landmark, set the mood each morning, and turn our guests into neighbours.


Why You’ll Like It Here

Daytime only: finish by 4 pm on weekdays, 3 pm Saturdays.
Great kit: La Marzocco Linea PB + Mahlkönig E65S grinders; tidy, efficient bar.
Centrally located: easy commute (Vauxhall, Westminster, Waterloo stations are all accessible, cycle-friendly)
Training that sticks: structured onboarding + external workshop access (latte art/espresso development/SCA pathway).
Benefits that matter: free lunch each shift, unlimited shift drinks, 30% staff discount.
Fair & fast hiring: paid trial; feedback within 48–72 hours.
Real progression: skill-matrix with pay bumps tied to milestones.


Our Values & Team Culture

We believe in kindness, creativity, hustle and integrity. Take pride in crafted, memorable service – know your regulars, greet everyone, leave a positive touch point with every cup.
We celebrate individuality, welcome diverse perspectives, and want every barista to feel at home and empowered to grow.


Hours, Pay & Benefits

Pay: £13.00–£15.00 p/h (experience-based) + tips, paid breaks.
Full-Time: 35–40 h/week (Saturday rotation expected).
Part-Time: 16–24 h/week (Saturday rotation expected).
Perks: free lunch; unlimited shift drinks; 30% staff discount; paid sick days (after probation); paid trial.
Training: onboarding + external course access via SCA-accredited training partners (latte art/espresso development/sensory skills).
Progression: probation review at 6–8 weeks, then pay bumps on skill sign-off and path to keyholder/full-time.


Key Responsibilities

Dial in and keep espresso quality consistent all day.
Steam milk to high standards and pour repeatable latte art (heart, rosetta, tulip).
Rotate across shots, milk and serve roles to keep pace and hospitality sharp.
Care for machines, grinders, FOH and prep areas; end-of-day cleaning and backflush.
Upsell bakes and food; operate POS/cash; deliver friendly, fast FOH service.
Support safe food handling, allergen and hygiene standards.
Communicate, support and bring your ideas and energy to every shift.


What You’ll Bring

12+ months specialty barista experience (or equivalent speed/coachability).
Confident dial-in, milk texturing and repeatable latte art.
Composure, pace and tidy habits; strong team and guest communication.
Right to work in the UK; punctuality and reliability.
Bonus: Level 2 food safety/first aid (or willingness to certify).
If you’re passionate, flexible, always learning, and take pride in your craft, you’ll thrive here.
