  • Notice when something needs attention and take initiative to handle it

  • Have strong attention to detail

The Right Person for This Job...

You don't need to be a coffee expert on your first day—we can teach you our recipes, equipment, and processes.

​

We're much more interested in finding someone who is friendly, dependable, hardworking, and takes ownership of their space.

​

The right person doesn't wait until someone says, "We're almost out of cups," or "That counter needs wiped down." They notice it and take care of it.

​

If you're someone who enjoys staying busy, loves providing great customer service, and takes pride in doing your job well, we'd love to meet you!
