Barista Front Of House Ninja

We are Little River Cafe. A busy cafe nestled in the valleys of Banks Peninsula. We are looking for one or two people to join our team. We are lucky enough to get thousands of customers through our doors every year so you need to be more than capable in a busy environment and comfortable under pressure.

The successful applicant needs to be available for a minimum of three months, preferably longer. We would love a couple or friends as we really could do with two people.

Preference would be given to people with barista skills or kitchen experience but equally people with an easily activated common sense mode are also very appealing.

Coffee making is a core component of our business as we make well over 400 high quality espresso based drinks per day through summer. We are realistic that people like this are hard to find but someone with potential can and will be trained up to the levels needed at this cafe. We have a reputation around Canterbury for making consistently great coffee and we need that reputation to be maintained. The ideal candidate must be confident and capable both front and back of house, able to turn their hand at whatever we throw their way.

We operate both a brunch menu and a display cabinet from our kitchen. It can be an extremely busy environment with lots of moving parts. You will need to be happy working closely with a team. The work involves cooking to order, baking cakes and sweets and general food preparation.

We have hired tourists via this web site for twelve years now and have really enjoyed having a diverse range of people that come to work with us. We have met some wonderful people from all over the world that we still keep in contact with now. We operate in a positive, busy, high paced environment that offers challenges and obstacles every day. If you think you have what it takes please get in touch with us.

The start date is flexible for the right people, but priority will be given to people who can start immediately.

Please if you could also include a phone number when you make contact. We find it faster and easier to call people and discuss things over the phone.

Talk to you soon
