Our ideal candidate is someone who genuinely enjoys hospitality and understands that a great café is about much more than just food and coffee — it's about people, atmosphere and the little things that make someone's day.

We're looking for someone with experience in breakfast and lunch service, a valuable eye for detail, pride in their work and a genuine passion for producing quality food. Someone who is reliable, proactive, positive and takes ownership of their role without needing to be constantly managed.

At Our Place, we believe in setting clear expectations, trusting our people and giving them the opportunity to do what they do best. We want someone who takes pride in creating a welcoming environment for both our guests and their teammates.

Ultimately,



we serve a simple breakfast menu with a focus on fresh ingredients, consistent quality and food our guests love.
