Our aim is simple: through great coffee and brilliant service, we want to make a positive difference in people’s lives. Our Store Managers take ownership of their own store, providing excellent customer service and operational standards. They:

• Pride themselves on keeping customers happy through fantastic service, both in store and through deliveries. With our signature 1-2-1 service style, they ensure customers leave with a personalised experience.
• Grow and develop their teams by training, coaching and leading them by example.
• Make fantastic coffee… and matcha… and seasonal drinks… every order is special! From bean to cup, they make each customer their coffee, exactly how they like it!
• Keep the customer and back-of-house areas safe, clean, organised and ready for service. Some examples would be cleaning tables or ensuring toilets are kept to the high standards our customers expect.
• Always strive for excellence!

What you can expect:

• Performance related bonus of between £3,500 - £5,500 per annum (dependant on role and store).
• Brilliant training and development, to get you up to speed in your role and beyond.
• The opportunity to grow your career and develop personally.
• Unlimited free handmade drinks and up to 75% off food and packaged drinks when you’re on shift.
• 50% off all handmade drinks and 40% off everything else when you’re off shift.
• Recommend A Friend Scheme, giving you the chance to earn up to £750 if you refer new people to join the team.
• Cash Plan Healthcare scheme.
• Length of service recognition.
• Access to our benefits platform, with hundreds of discounts, rewards and offers.

To be successful:

Maybe you're looking to take the next step in your career journey? Perhaps you want a move into the growing world of coffee? You might already be a Store Manager and love the Caffè Nero brand. Whatever you're doing, if you have experience of leading, developing and nurturing a team in a busy, customer facing environment, we would love to hear from you.

Why choose us?

When you join us, you’re joining a group of caring, supportive and friendly people – whether that’s your team, the regular customers of your café or your community.
You’ll be part of building something special and have loads of fun along the way – that could be at one of our regular Caffè Nero Club parties, our Barista of the Year Competition or grabbing you and your team an award at our End of Year celebration. There’s something for everyone.

And it doesn't stop there. The opportunities for development are fantastic. Many of our Area and Regional Managers grew their careers in store, and it's the same for our Head Office teams too.

If you have a great attitude, bags of energy and love interacting with customers then we’d love to hear from you!

At Caffè Nero you can really be you, with us.

Job Types: Full-time, Permanent

Benefits:

• Company events
• Discounted or free food
• Employee discount

Application question(s):

• Our stores open early and some stay open late. If you are working an opening shift you would need to be at work approximately 45 minutes before the store opens. If you are working a closing shift you will be in store up to 30 minutes after it closes and it is very important that you have checked that you are able to travel to the store you are applying to. Can you confirm that you have looked into your commute and you can travel to the location to which you’ve applied in order to fulfil the range of possible shifts?
• How would you travel to the store if you were successful, and how long would this take you?
• Our stores are typically open 7 days a week, with some opening early and some closing late. Please tell us your availability to work during a typical week. If you are selected for interview we will discuss this with you in more detail.
• The role you are applying for is a permanent one. If you are looking for temporary work or can only do the advertised hours for a short period of time, unfortunately this would not be a suitable role for you. Are you able to commit to a permanent role?
• Keeping the customer and back-of-house areas safe, clean, organised and ready for service is an essential part of everyone’s job. If you join us you will share this responsibility with the team, and some examples would be clearing and cleaning tables or ensuring the toilets are kept to the high standards our customers expect. Are you comfortable completing these (and other) cleaning tasks as part of your daily routine in-store?
• Do you have experience in a management role within a busy customer facing environment?
