Job Description

Guests at this busy mall coffee shop in Vanderbijlpark come back for the people, and you'll be one of the reasons. It's a practical job: you'll see what you got done before you go home.

Home base is a busy mall coffee shop on the Vanderbijlpark side of Gauteng.

What you'll actually do

  • Refuse service to anyone under 18 or visibly drunk, as the Liquor Act requires.
  • Pull espresso shots and steam milk for flat whites and cappuccinos.
  • Mix cocktails, pour draught and serve shooters to spec at the bar.
  • Set tables, polish cutlery and glasses, and check condiments before doors open.
  • Check back two minutes after mains land and fix problems on the spot.
  • Carry plates to the right seat without auctioning food at the table.

What you need

  • Grade 10 or higher; matric is a plus
  • Happy to work nights, weekends and public holidays
  • Quick with basic maths and card machines
  • At least 6 months of waitering, bar or coffee shop experience
  • You speak clear English and can chat easily with guests
  • Own transport or a safe way home after late shifts

Helpful, not essential

  • A second language such as isiZulu, isiXhosa or Afrikaans
  • Wine knowledge from a WSET Level 1 or wine farm stint
  • A barista course certificate or latte-art skills

What's in it for you

  • You keep your own tips, paid out daily or weekly
  • Late-shift lift home within a set radius
  • Staff meal on every shift

Applying, step by step

  1. Make sure the role, the hours and working in Vanderbijlpark really suit you before you apply.
  2. Get these ready, because shortlisted people are asked for them straight away: a one-page CV with a recent photo plus your food handler or barista certificate, if you have one.
  3. Send your details with the form below. Add one or two lines about similar work you've done.
  4. Keep your phone on. Shortlisted applicants are contacted by call, SMS or WhatsApp within 6 working days.

  • Recruiters ask about a difficult table, so have one real story ready about how you turned it around.
