Coffee first Great coffee is at the centre of Goodside.

You'll work alongside our senior team and experienced baristas to make sure our coffee standards are delivered consistently every day.

You'll don't need to be the most technical coffee person in the room, but you do need to care about great coffee, great service and maintaining high standards.

Champion food, sales and customer growth We're a new venue,



and two of our biggest opportunities are

building our customer base and developing a stronger food offer .

We want someone who enjoys getting to know customers, building regulars and finding ways to bring new people into the venue.

You'll also help build a food offer that's as considered and consistent as our coffee, working with our suppliers and kitchen partners on menu development, presentation, pricing, margins and wastage.

You'll lead a team that engages with customers, knows the menu and confidently makes recommendations rather than simply taking orders.

Great service comes first, but we want someone who thinks about

how we bring more customers through the door, keep them coming back and grow what they spend with us.

Build a strong team and venue You'll lead from the floor, build a reliable team and develop supervisors and senior baristas to take greater responsibility.

You'll take ownership of:

Team leadership, training and rostering

Labour, COGS and venue performance

Food, stock, ordering and wastage

Customer service, sales and average spend

Supplier communication

Menus, POS, signage and promotions

General venue administration

Venue presentation and standards





Simple systems and checklists that make everyone's job easier

We're looking for someone who

notices things and follows through . If something needs updating, printing, ordering, fixing or following up, you make sure it gets done.

Where this can go This role starts at

459 Collins Street , but we're growing, with two new Melbourne locations planned.

Get Collins performing well, build a strong team around you and show us you're ready for more, and there's a genuine pathway into

multi site management with Goodside .

You'll have plenty of support along the way from our senior team across coffee, operations and commercial performance.

Who we're looking for You might currently be a Cafe Manager, Assistant Manager, Supervisor or a strong hospitality team member ready for more responsibility.

We're looking for someone who:

Genuinely enjoys hospitality and working with customers

Cares about excellent coffee and has a real interest in food

Enjoys building and developing a team

Is organised and follows things through

Notices the small things

Is interested in sales and what makes a venue perform

Is comfortable being hands on and leading from the floor

Brings ideas and wants to keep learning

Wants to take on more responsibility as they develop

You don't need to arrive knowing everything.

We're much more interested in finding the right person who wants to learn, contribute and grow with us.

Salary: $75,000 to $85,000 + super, depending on experience.
