Bees for Buzz

[MelGold]

Buzz - the coffee shop/bakery/dessert lounge we're all anxiously awaiting to open across from Rustico in Alexandria - is opening in a few weeks. We're currently in the process of staffing up for opening, with full-time and part-time positions available for assistant managers, supervisors and baristas. Buzz will be open from 6 am until midnight daily, so there are plenty of shifts to cover. Everyone will be trained on the equipment starting soon, but prior experience is always a great benefit.

POSITIONS AVAILABLE

Baristas

There's an art to making a great cup of coffee & we're looking for people who have a yen for the cocoa bean. No experience is necessary, but you must like coffee enough to drink what you make. In addition to making coffee drinks in the shop, the baristas will be tasked with the full range of front of house duties, including cashiering, taking phone orders, boxing bakery orders, stocking product, bussing tables, running food, and keeping the front clean and presentable. Part time and full time is available!!

Supervisors

In addition to barista tasks, this position includes the responsibility of supervising co-workers & managing the store when the general manager or assistant manager is not present. Many times supervisors will be in charge of opening or closing the store, and will take on responsibilities of handling registers and cash counting, as well as any customer service situations that arise during his/her shift. These positions can be part-time, but we ask for a commitment of at least 25 hours per week.

Assistant Manager

The Assistant Manager position is a full-time person with solid bakery, coffee house or restaurant experience. Responsibilities include, but are not limited to, customer service, handling deposits, scheduling, training and working with staff, opening and closing the store, product ordering, quality control, keeping the appearance of the store at its best, and the overall performance of the store.

If you or someone you know might be interested in joining this dynamic family of restaurants & businesses, please forward a resume with cover letter to General Manager Lindsey Stewart at lstewart@buzzonslaters.com.
