Young Worker (hiring now)
We’re a fun, friendly, honest, supportive and cheeky family and we love people and keepin’ things cool! Diversity, community and feel-good vibes is what we’re all about and we need people to add value to this yummy place! ?
For the coming season, we’ve opened up for new spots in our café staff team for young workers. We are not able to guarantee a specific amount of hours but we CAN guarantee you to be your perfect gig along your studies or other work engagements!
For the current seasonal intake, we're looking for individuals who are able to work throughout the months March - September and have full availability during the summer.
You must be between 14-17 years old.
About the role
Young workers at yum yoga & café undertake a floater role in café and kitchen, and play a vital and dynamic role, ensuring the smooth functioning of the establishment, in collaboration with the other floor staff. With a diverse range of responsibilities, the position requires adaptability, multitasking abilities, and a good work ethic.
As a floater, the young worker is responsible for providing support to various areas of the café as needed. This includes assisting the baristas, preparing beverages, serving customers, and ensuring timely delivery of orders to customers. The young worker also assists in the kitchen with the main position being by the dishwasher and making sure there is an ongoing flow of clean tools, cuttlery, coffee cups etc.
With the versatile nature of the role, it is important that everyone in the team has a clear understanding of the priorities of the young worker, as well as clear communication from the main responsible on any given shift. It is the responsibility of the Café Manager/Floor Manager to help the young worker navigate and make sure that they have the foundation to fulfill their responsibilities.
TASKS & PRIOS
With the help from the manager or responsible on any given shift, young workers at yum must prioritize tasks, manage their workload effectively, and ensure that orders are served promptly. Being able to maintain attention to detail is essential. This is the main rule of thumb for the role:
→ 1st prio: Service to guests (take orders to table)
→ 2nd prio: Washing dishes
→ 3rd prio: Cleaning tables
It is important for the young worker to develop an ability to oversee the main stations (finished orders to deliver, dishwater, tables) on an ongoing basis, and work in a good flow. Always bring dirty plates, cups, glasses etc. in from tables on your way back from serving an order. This way, the young worker will spend less time walking in and out, and furthermore, tables will be cleaned faster for a greater customer experience.
Delivering orders in a timely manner should be considered a team effort, and the responsible on any given day should have the overall responsibility of this, and help young workers navigate when to leave their other stations, if the flow is for some reasons not obtained.
Customer Service
The young worker must possess good interpersonal skills and a friendly demeanor to ensure that every customer receives a positive experience. Greeting customers with a smile is a key aspect of this role. Additionally, the young worker must address customer inquiries or concerns promptly and professionally, and if there is any doubt regarding how to respond to a customer request, the main responsible on any given shift should step in to help the young customer, and let the young worker get back to his/her main responsibilities. The young worker should not be left alone in critical situations where customers might be unhappy with the café’s operations, products or services. In these cases, the young worker should go to the manager on the shift, explain the situation and let the manager take over.
The young worker should possess a good work ethic and positive attitude. This means being punctual, reliable, and demonstrating a willingness to learn and grow in their role. Fast pace and direct orders must be expected, and the ability to remain calm under potentially hectic days is highly valued.
Cleanliness & Hygiene
The young worker is expected to clean and sanitize tables, chairs, and other surfaces regularly. They are also responsible for washing dishes, utensils, and equipment.
Communications & Time Management
The young worker must be a team player and possess effective communication skills. They need to collaborate with the café's staff, including baristas, kitchen staff, and managers, to ensure efficient operations. Clear and concise communication is essential for seamless coordination and the ability to adapt to changing demands and priorities.
In summary, a young worker in at yum, undertaking a floater role, assumes a versatile and important position. Their responsibilities encompass customer service, beverage preparation, cleanliness, teamwork, and effective communication. With adaptability, good organizational skills, and a customer-centric mindset, the floater contributes to the overall success and reputation of the café while gaining valuable experience in the hospitality industry.

Feel like applying?
We’re always open to meet interesting yogis, and if the schedule allows, we might have room for you to start!
