About you
You will be a great communicator, and you’ll be someone who understands and can demonstrate excellent customer service skills, previous experience of working in a café environment and a level 2 food hygiene qualification would be ideal.
As the role requires some stock rotation and ordering you will need to have basic numeracy and literacy skills, but most of all we want someone who shares our workplace values. You’ll also need to be comfortable with overseeing the café team and compliance with quality standards.
You will need to be able to prepare a range of hot and cold meals and bake a variety of cakes as well as make hot and cold drinks.
No one will meet every single desired qualification. If your experience looks a little different from what we're saying and you think you can bring value to the role, we'd love to learn more about you!
About the role
You will ensure the efficient day to day running of the café. You will work with and oversee the café assistants and volunteers to ensure a warm welcome is offered to all visitors, whilst providing hot and cold drinks and snacks and embedding the five Persona values into everything you do.
You will need to start work slightly earlier and finish slightly later than the café’s opening times, to support the opening and closing of service.
Further information about the role can be found in the job description.
