Be part of something new. Something local. Something special.

We’re currently looking for an experienced, passionate Head Barista to lead our coffee and drinks offering as we open our doors and build our team from day one.

About the role:

As Head Barista, you’ll set the tone for our front-of-house experience – from the first flat white of the morning to the last iced latte in the courtyard. You’ll have the opportunity to shape our coffee and drinks menu, train and lead a small team, and create a welcoming, upbeat atmosphere at the heart of the café.

We want someone who’s not just great with a steam wand – but who loves what coffee culture brings to a place like Meadow Café: connection, creativity, and everyday moments worth slowing down for.

What you’ll do:

• Craft exceptional espresso-based drinks, cold brews and seasonal specials

• Take pride in every drink – balancing consistency, speed and presentation

• Help develop our in-house drinks range

• Deliver friendly, attentive customer service every time

• Maintain a clean, organised and well-stocked bar area

• Support and train junior baristas and café team

• Manage daily bar operations including open/close routines and stock control

You’ll be a great fit if you:

• Have solid barista experience and a passion for great coffee

• Are confident leading a team in a busy café environment

• Thrive on friendly, hands-on customer service

• Are excited about contributing to a new, evolving venue

• Care about quality, sustainability, and doing things properly

• Bring positivity, reliability, and a strong sense of pride in your work

What we offer:

• Starting salary of £12.00 per hour + tips

• 4-days/week, working Wednesday to Saturday (0800-1600)

• Holiday pay and pension

• Free staff meals on shift

• The chance to join a new independent business from the very beginning

• A relaxed, friendly team environment with room to grow

To apply, send your CV and a short cover letter to info@meadowsomerset.com

We can’t wait to hear from you!
