Join Our New Team in Port Talbot
Bradleys Coffee is opening in Port Talbot, and we're looking for enthusiastic, friendly people to become part of our brand-new team.
We're recruiting for a number of permanent part-time Barista positions, with contracts starting from 16 hours per week. Successful applicants will be available to work a mixture of weekdays and weekends, helping us provide a warm welcome and outstanding service.
At Bradleys Coffee, we're about far more than serving great coffee. We believe coffee shops should be welcoming places where people can meet friends, catch up with family, work, relax, or simply enjoy a friendly conversation. We take great pride in becoming part of the communities we serve, and we're looking for people who genuinely enjoy making others feel welcome.
Whether it's remembering a regular customer's favourite drink, helping someone discover a new coffee, or simply making somebody's day a little brighter, you'll play an important part in creating a place that people look forward to visiting.
Experience is helpful, but attitude is everything. If you enjoy working with people, take pride in doing things well and want to be part of a supportive, hard-working team, we would love to hear from you.
