Company Description
Roaming Roast are a small chain of three specialty coffee trucks located in Borehamwood, and Bushey.
We are a growing business looking for a weekend supervisor to fully manage our Borehamwood location at weekends. You will be contracted to do a minimum of 15 hours during the weekend but additional shifts during the week will also be available should you wish to work more hours.
Ideally you will be a career barista with managerial or supervisory experience or even someone looking to demonstrate their ability think and act independently for the first time.
As we're an outdoor coffee truck, someone who enjoys being out in all weathers essential and being a practical problem solver is highly desireable.
Being a small business and sometimes working alone, we can be required to wear many hats - barista, plumber, handyperson or even electrician. This is the everyday reality of working on a coffee truck.
Run by husband and wife team Charlie and Abbi, we have a loyal customer base who come for a chat, as well as a coffee. Commonly cited as the best coffee in Borehamwood, we are a small business aiming to make a big difference to the quality of coffee people drink.
We serve specialty coffee from Origin and homemade treats made by Abbi, with a commitment to delivering coffee as the roaster intends: no syrups and no squirty cream. Our dedication to quality ensures that every customer enjoys a premium coffee experience.
