Summary
Operating the front of house in our Lillypad CaféDetailed description
We are looking for someone to support us with the running of our Lillypad Café. The role is front of house so some confidence in dealing with the general public is a bonus. Training will be offered but we would like someone who is confident they are able to manage money, people, stock rotation, use our touch button coffee machine and prepare snacks. Once training has been delivered this will be an unsupervised role. However, there will be someone onsite at all times to lend support if needed.

The organisation provides a therapeutic approach and promotes equality, diversity and inclusion creating an environment and culture where every individual can feel safe, valued, respected and a sense of belonging.
