Love specialty coffee? Love people? Love the chaos of a seriously busy café? This could be for you.
n
Elk Espresso is on the hunt for our next Head Barista.
n
We're a big, busy beachside café in Broadbeach with a huge local & interstate following, a great crew and a coffee bar that absolutely hums. We've been doing this since 2012, and while a lot has changed over the years, one thing hasn't — we care deeply about what we put across the coffee pass.
n
Coffee is a massive part of Elk.
n
You'll co-lead a team of baristas across two La Marzocco machines, serving our house blend roasted by the legends at Social Roasters, alongside 3 weekly rotating guest coffees from some of Australia's best roasters.
n
This role is about more than making a killer flat white.
n
We're looking for someone who can lead the bar, develop our baristas, protect consistency when it gets busy and keep finding ways to make our coffee offering better.
n
You'll need:
n
n
- Years of specialty coffee experience
n
- Experience as a Head Barista, or the leadership skills to step into the role
n
- Confidence in a high-volume setting
n
- Strong latte art and excellent coffee knowledge
n
- The ability to lead, train and develop a great team
n
- A calm head when the coffee bar is pumping
n
- Strong organisation and attention to detail
n
- Fresh ideas and a desire to keep learning & to help our seasonal menus
n
- A great personality and genuine love for hospitality
n
- Full availability
n
n
We're big believers in development too. There are opportunities for additional training, cuppings and education with Social Roasters and the wider specialty coffee community.
n
And your morning commute ends across the road from the beach.
n
Sunrises before service, ocean air on your break and, if you're lucky, whales cruising past while you're working.
n
It's busy. It's fast. Standards are high.
n
But there's a bloody good crew around you.
n
Stalk us on Instagram @elkespresso and see what you're getting yourself into.
