Who are we?
Take your place at the heart of our community, where your voice matters and your passion for customer service is brewed into everything we do. We have an exciting opportunity for you to join our team as a barista, where you’ll get involved in creating the Starbucks experience by providing our customers with high quality service, beverages, and products.
We became franchisees of the amazing Starbucks brand in 2015. We operate our own stores and hire our own teams, but we are guided by the product, brand and design which Starbucks create. Of course, we like to add our magic Queensway family sparkle in all our stores. We are a spirited bunch of high performers who live and breathe our company values of being kind, working together, challenging everything, and having fun.
