Barista / All-Rounder
YOT – Heswall
We’re looking for a Barista / All-Rounder to join the YOT team!
YOT is a unique, outdoor-focused café in Heswall, serving great coffee, delicious food and bringing a little bit of coastal holiday feeling to the area. We’re a busy, friendly and slightly chaotic team (in the best possible way!) and we’re looking for someone who can jump in, get stuck in and have fun with us.
The important bit – weekday availability
You MUST be available to work weekdays and weekends. This is really important to us, as our weekday shifts are a key part of the role. We’re looking for someone who can commit to regular weekday shifts and isn’t only looking for weekend work.
What you’ll be doing
- Making consistently great coffee and speciality drinks
- Taking orders and providing friendly, welcoming customer service
- Preparing and serving food
- Keeping the café, outdoor areas and workspaces clean and organised
- Helping with opening and closing duties
- Supporting the wider team wherever needed
- Getting involved in new menu ideas, drinks and specials
- Helping create a fun and positive atmosphere for our customers
- Supporting events and private hire when required
- Being happy to get stuck into whatever the day throws at you!
What we’re looking for
We’re looking for someone who is:
- Friendly, confident and approachable
- Passionate about great coffee and hospitality
- Comfortable working in a busy environment
- A team player who is happy to muck in
- Reliable and punctual
- Able to work independently as well as part of a team
- Confident talking to customers and building relationships
- Creative and willing to bring ideas to the table
- Available to work weekdays on a regular basis plus weekends
Barista experience is preferred, but personality, attitude and a genuine love of hospitality are just as important to us. We can teach skills — we can’t teach someone to care!
Why work at YOT?
We’re not your typical café. We genuinely involve our team in the business, from creating new drinks and menu ideas to social media and events. If you’ve got an idea, we want to hear it.
We’re looking for someone who wants to be part of the YOT family, not just someone looking for a job. We work hard, have a laugh and take what we do seriously — just not ourselves!
If you’re friendly, energetic, love coffee and want to join a growing independent business, we’d love to hear from you.
Please note: weekday availability is essential for this role.
