Barista – Seaborn (Newington Green)

Full & Part time available Competitive Pay

Seaborn is a brand new café opening in Newington Green in July, and we’re on the lookout for a skilled, energetic, and people-focused Barista to help bring it to life.

We’ll be serving great coffee and flavour-packed sandwiches in a playful yet quality-driven environment. We’ve partnered with Fireheart Coffee, who’ll be providing us with incredible coffee, top-tier equipment, and expert support, ensuring our brews are as sharp as our service from day one.

If you’re excited about being part of a new opening, shaping the coffee offering, we’d love to hear from you.

What You’ll Be Doing:

  • Take the lead on all things coffee—from dial-ins to training and daily service
  • Ensure every coffee meets our quality standards, even during peak rushes
  • Support the overall day-to-day running of the café, jumping in wherever needed
  • Maintain clean, organised, and efficient bar and service areas
  • Collaborate with the kitchen and FOH team to create a smooth, enjoyable customer experience
  • Contribute ideas, coffee specials, and improvements to keep things fresh and fun

You’ll Fit Right In If You:

  • Have experience as a senior or junior barista in a busy speciality café
  • Are deeply passionate about quality coffee and the craft behind it
  • Lead by example and love sharing knowledge with others
  • Can work fast, stay calm, and keep things positive under pressure
  • Communicate clearly and proactively with your team and managers
  • Know your way around coffee equipment and aren’t afraid of a little maintenance
  • Are excited by the energy of a new opening and enjoy being part of a build-from-scratch team
  • (Bonus) Have basic troubleshooting skills and a good palate for dial-ins

Why Join Seaborn?

  • Help launch a fresh, independent café with big ideas and a strong personality
  • Shape the coffee culture from day one with support from Fireheart Coffee
  • Be part of a collaborative, respectful, and good-humoured team
  • Grow with the business—there’s room for development as we expand
  • Staff perks, ongoing training, and a chance to have your voice heard

How to Apply: If you’re ready to bring the energy, the coffee skills to help us launch Seaborn, we’d love to hear from you.
