Barista - Roseville Galleria Kiosk

About The Job

We're hiring talented coffee and customer service enthusiasts for our new Kiosk opening at the Roseville Galleria in March. Our journey toward instant coffee was driven by the belief that exceptional coffee can and should be broadly accessible. With the confidence of a delicious coffee offering, we've removed many of the barriers a space needed, bulky equipment, and cumbersome steps. Yet the most important skill sets continue to connect our Cafes and instant kiosks: the attention to detail to make delicious coffee and the spirit of omotenashi when serving our guests.
