Barista at Gelderlandplein

Energy and good vibes, that’s what we’re all about. And great vibes start with great coffee. As our Barista, you’re doing more than making good coffees. You’re the face behind the machine, the one who keeps the flow going, and the person who delivers perfect cups even when the pace picks up.

What you'll be doing

As a barista at Oliver Green, you’ll be the face of our brand, embodying our commitment to fresh, healthy food and excellent customer service. Whether you’re greeting guests, taking orders, making coffee, your role is essential in creating a welcoming and efficient experience for everyone.

What a day looks like
  • 8:30 AM: You arrive together with your kitchen colleague to get everything ready before the doors open at 9.00 Together, you set up the stations, prepare ingredients, and ensure the space is ready to welcome our first guests.
  • 9:00 AM: The doors open, and the first customers arrive for breakfast and coffee. You greet them with a smile, take their orders, and prepare their drinks.
  • 10:00 AM: A second colleague arrives to join the team. You collaborate to manage orders and keep the flow running smoothly, balancing preparation and customer service.
  • Morning: While helping guests, you also work through a checklist to prepare for lunch, our busiest time of day. This includes stocking up on ingredients, ensuring all equipment is ready, and maintaining a clean, organized workspace.
  • Lunch Rush: You’re fully focused on the busiest part of the day, preparing coffee and taking orders. Everyone works together to keep things efficient and ensure every guest gets the best experience.
  • Afternoon: After the lunch rush, you restock, clean, and complete smaller tasks to prepare for the evening team.
  • End of Shift: Before heading out, you tidy your station, check in with your team, and leave knowing you’ve played a vital role in making the day a success at Oliver Green.
