From the first coffee poured to the final smile shared, every moment in Pausa is a chance to brighten someone’s day - and you’ll be right at the centre of it all.

Our coffee shops, affectionately titled Pausa, are positively thriving and it is our Coffee Shop Assistants that are at the very heart of their success. You’ll take pride in every cup you pour, build expert knowledge of our product range and meaningfully connect with our customers. Whether it’s a regular grabbing their usual or a first-time visitor, you’ll make sure every customer leaves feeling better than when they arrived. It’s a busy, hands-on role that takes energy, focus and a fair bit of graft.

  • Ensuring all cooked food is nice and hot so they can be enjoyed as intended
  • Keeping the restaurant tables clear and sanitised as promptly as possible to maintain our customers high expectations
  • Providing an exceptional standard of cleanliness throughout the kitchen, service area and restaurant
  • Consistently deliver exceptional customer service to support strong CSAT (Customer Satisfaction) scores, ensuring every customer receives a welcoming, helpful, and memorable experience.
  • As part of this role you will be working and in contact with a variety of different ingredients including dairy, nuts, meat products including pork


What we'll look for in you

  • You are customer obsessed - you put customers first in every interaction
  • You’re flexible, able to work across the weekends and evenings
  • You have previous experience working closely with a team and you’ll ideally have prior work experience in a similar environment
  • You are a friendly, hard-working individual who loves to provide a joyful customer dining experience
  • You are a team player who never fails to contribute and loves the satisfaction of a job well done and a smile on our customers faces

We’re not after a carbon copy of anyone else. We want people who bring something new to the table - different perspectives, fresh ideas, and a shared love of making our stores feel like home.
