Café Manager with Entrepreneurial Mindset – Growth Opportunity Are you a hospitality qualified who dreams of creating something of your own?
Bark & Brew is a unique café located within VetLand, a busy 24/7 veterinary hospital in Mitcham.
We have created a welcoming café space where pet owners, veterinary clients, our team, and the local community can enjoy great coffee, food, and connection.
We are looking for an enthusiastic and entrepreneurial person to help take Bark & Brew into its next phase of growth.
This is not a traditional café management role.
We are looking for someone who enjoys working in the business and on the business - someone who can make exceptional coffee, deliver outstanding hospitality, but also enjoys building systems, analysing opportunities, improving processes, and helping grow a unique café concept.
The Opportunity Bark & Brew is in its early stages, with strong foundations established and significant potential for growth.
We are looking for someone who can help shape the future direction of the café - improving the customer experience, increasing revenue, creating efficient systems, and building a strong local following.
This role offers the opportunity to have genuine influence, autonomy, and input into how the business develops.
For the right person, there may be a potential pathway to business partnership or ownership as the café grows.
