Please read this entire post before replying.

Awaken Cafe (www.awakencafe.com) is seeking an experienced Coffee Manager ($15/hr).  We’re looking for a real cafe pro:  someone with a minimum of two years experience managing people and a minimum of two years in Third Wave Coffee (familiarity with Four Barrel Coffee a plus).  The ideal candidate is excellent at customer service, has extensive knowledge of coffee varieties and brewing techniques, a refined coffee palate, ability to educate others on specialty coffee flavor profiles, advanced barista skills, experience with inventory and ordering, and has proven themselves an effective team leader.  The Coffee Manager will be an important member of our management team helping to design and implement a world-class coffee program.

We receive a lot of resumes and unfortunately cannot reply to everyone.  You will get an auto-reply to confirm we’ve received your email.  We will contact you if we want to schedule a follow up interview, if you meet the minimum experience requirements above, AND if you follow these guidelines:

  1. Please send resumes to jobs@awakencafe.com with the position you are seeking in the subject line.  Please do not drop off or fax.
  2. Please visit our web site and write a cover letter in the body of the email that demonstrates your knowledge of our business (this helps us sort through the people who are just firing off generic emails to everyone on craigslist).  Tell us why you want to work for us
  3. Also in the body of the email, include three recent professional references with email address (or phone where email is not available) who have supervised you at recent positions
  4. And attach a current resume in .doc, .docx, or .pdf format.

We look forward to hearing from you!
