Mister Magpie is growing, and we're looking for a hands-on leader to join our team. This is a key role for someone with strong café management experience who's ready to step into a broader leadership position—driving standards, leading from the floor, and ensuring every shift runs smoothly.
We're especially looking for someone who's a coffee expert—confident working on the machine, skilled in latte art and dialling in, and passionate about consistently delivering outstanding quality and guest experience.
You'll be based on-site across the week, working closely with our café team to support daily operations, develop people, and make sure everything from coffee to service runs to the highest standard.
What You'll Bring:
* 3+ years' experience managing or supervising in a busy café or coffee-led environment
* Excellent barista skills, including latte art and quality control
* Experience managing rotas, stock, costs, and team performance
* A confident, supportive leadership style and strong communication skills
* A genuine passion for coffee, food, and creating welcoming, well-run spaces
What You'll Do:
* Be a visible leader, working hands-on with teams across sites
* Maintain high standards in service, product quality, and presentation
* Deliver barista training and oversee coffee quality across the estate
* Monitor performance and identify areas for improvement
* Support recruitment, onboarding, and staff development
* Lead by example, fostering a positive, guest-focused culture
If you're excited by quality, community, and the buzz of a busy café, we'd love to hear from you.
