ABOUT NEIGHBOURLY COFFEE

Neighbourly Coffee is more than a café — it's a gathering place. As a social enterprise connected to 12 Neighbours, we exist to create a warm, welcoming space where every person who walks through our doors feels seen, respected, and at home. Our team is at the heart of that mission. Every cup poured and every conversation had is a chance to build community.

THE ROLE

We're looking for a Barista who takes pride in their craft and brings genuine warmth to every shift. You'll be part of a front-of-house team that cares about doing the small things well — a clean bar, a perfectly made drink, a friendly face at the counter — and understands that those things add up to something meaningful.

You don't need to be a coffee expert to apply. We're happy to train the right person. What matters most is that you're reliable, curious, and genuinely enjoy connecting with people.

WHAT YOU'LL DO
Prepare and serve espresso, drip, and specialty drinks to our quality and recipe standards
Greet every guest warmly and deliver attentive, friendly service
Keep the espresso station and café clean, organized, and welcoming throughout your shift
Follow opening, closing, and daily checklists with care and accountability
Develop your coffee knowledge — drink builds, ingredients,



brewing methods, and seasonal offerings
Support your teammates and coordinate with the Coffee Lead and Floor Lead to keep things running smoothly
Care for equipment and report any issues promptly
Bring a proactive attitude — if something needs doing, do it

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR
A warm, people-first personality — you genuinely enjoy connecting with others
Reliability and punctuality — your team and your guests count on you
The ability to stay calm and focused in a fast-paced environment
Curiosity about coffee and a desire to keep improving your craft
Initiative — you notice what needs to be done without being asked
Strong communication and a collaborative spirit
Previous café or food service experience is an asset, but not required

WHY WORK WITH US
Be part of a mission-driven organization making a real difference in the community
Join a team that genuinely cares about the people it works with
Consistent hours in a supportive, values-driven workplace
Grow your coffee skills with mentorship from our Coffee Lead team
