Part-Time Barista
Homebird Interiors – St Annes
Great coffee. Warm welcomes. A place people genuinely enjoy coming back to.
We’re looking for enthusiastic, dynamic and personable individuals to join our café team in barista and front of house roles. These are key positions within our store, often the very first point of contact for our customers - so the energy, warmth and experience you create really does set the tone.
We are currently recruiting for a mix of:
- Experienced Barista
- Barista/Kitchen Assistant
Our St Annes store has been open for two years and continues to grow in popularity. Around 18 months ago, we introduced our in-store café, which has quickly become a much-loved part of the store, bringing in new customers while giving our regulars another reason to visit and stay a little longer.
We serve excellent coffee (thanks to our brilliant North-West roastery partners), alongside a selection of cakes and pastries. With plans to introduce a fresh light lunch offering this summer, it’s an exciting time to join us and we’re looking for people who want to be part of shaping that and bringing great ideas to the table.
You’ll:
- Prepare and serve high-quality hot and cold drinks
- Take orders and manage both card and cash transactions
- Deliver friendly, confident and attentive customer service
- Help create a warm, welcoming atmosphere in the café
- Work efficiently during busy periods, multitasking and prioritising effectively
- Work collaboratively with your teammates to ensure smooth, efficient service
- Support the wider team with a range of tasks, including clearing tables, maintaining cleanliness and assisting with basic kitchen or back-of-house duties when needed
One of the real perks of this role is the people. You’ll meet new customers every day, while also building relationships with regulars who come back time and again.
What we’re looking for
We’re looking for people who are:
- Naturally warm, friendly and great with people
- Energetic, positive and confident in a customer-facing role
- Passionate about providing genuinely great service
- Organised and able to stay calm and efficient during busy periods
- Team players who are happy to get stuck in and support wherever needed
- Genuinely interested in coffee, food and creating a great customer experience
Barista experience is essential for more senior roles. For part-time or weekend roles, we’re happy to provide training if you bring the right attitude, attributes and enthusiasm.
A basic understanding of food hygiene and safety is desirable, and we can support you with training if needed.
Flexibility to work weekends and holidays is important.
Why join us?
- Work in a beautiful, design-led setting within a well-loved interiors store
- Be part of a warm, supportive and friendly team
- A loyal and growing customer base you’ll get to know
- The freedom to bring your own personality to the role
- The chance to be part of an evolving café as we grow our offering
