Job description

Everybody, Back to Ours!

Featured in the last year’s London Indie Coffee Guide, we’re an independent specialty coffee cafe in Leytonstone E11, set inside an old Victorian-era orphanage that’s also home to creative studios and a co-working space. Inspired by our origins in Melbourne, we pride ourselves on doing the simple things exceptionally well: great coffee, great service and delicious brunch & pastries in a space that makes the best of what we love accessible to everyone.

We’re looking for Front of House crew with excellent coffee, latte art and service skills to join our team 3-4 days a week, available to work one or both weekend days. We run a flat structure and stay pretty dynamic in the way we work and support each other to ensure smooth ops, so at various points you may also be running coffee or food orders, cleaning tables and helping create an environment that makes the shop a clean, warm, welcoming place to be.

You’ll be working with Assembly on a La Marzocco Linea PB ABR, alongside 3 Mahlkönig grinders. We also feature rotating guest roasters on filter. SCA certified training is paid, lunch is free on-shift, coffee is free always, and there’s a 30% staff discount on retail. Working in a startup business, you will have a broad scope to expand your remit and grow as we grow. We’re also about to launch our second location…

Sound good? Here are the boring bits…

1. Salary: Dependent on experience, but always in excess of London living wage.
2. Benefits: Day off on your birthday and 28 days annual leave per FTE calendar year.
3. Probation: 3 month probationary period.

We think cover letters are kind of overrated. Instead, please can you supply us with an up-to-date CV and short answers to the following questions:

1. What made the best place you have worked, the best place you have worked? No need to name names.
2. What are you looking for in your next role (or this one, assuming we’re it)?
3. Where do you live, and are you able to travel to Leytonstone for early morning shifts (and early finishes)? We’re open 7 days, from 7.30am weekdays, 8am weekends and close to both overground and underground (Central line) stations.
4. Do you have the right to live and work in the UK?

We hire for personality and team fit first and work hard to create a positive working environment. Diversity, equality, and inclusion are central to who we are.
