Job description
Our Counter concept at Fulham Road and Notting HIll is pioneering a totally new idea in café culture - that you don’t have to compromise on flavour or sustainability to eat a quick, nutritious meal. Serving up a radically seasonal and totally traceable menu, everything is made by us from scratch, using ingredients sourced straight from growers and producers in our own community.
Education of the consumer is at the core of our mission, with flavour the key to unlocking that knowledge. Once tasted, we can encourage home cooks to eat a wider variety of fruit & vegetables, and help them to understand the positive influence they can have over the food system as a whole.
About the job
As Shop Sales Assistant, you’ll be the face of a dynamic, committed movement that is driving real change at ground level.
You will be responsible for displaying and caring for some of the best-tasting produce available in the UK. You’ll be able to advise on seasonal produce and will go above and beyond to ensure that we are always delivering the best possible service.
Through our training programme, we’ll equip you with the tools and knowledge to become a leading campaigner in your own right, climbing a clear growth path with training modules covering Product, Customer Service and Store Operations.
At the core of that knowledge is a deep understanding and appreciation for our produce. You’ll learn where, how and by whom our food is grown, and how every decision - from seed selection to growing method to serving suggestion - can impact on the planet. Everyone has a part to play in creating a better food system. This is your chance.
Key Responsibilities
- You will look after our customers and provide the best client service
- You will help people engage with unfamiliar produce
- Ensure that our displays are refreshed and looking their best throughout the day
- Maintain a visually compelling store that is neat, clean and organised
ABOUT YOU
- We look for a minimum 1 year of work experience, in any field
- You care about what you eat: where it comes from and how it’s made
- You are approachable, caring, and enjoy offering great customer service
- We look for fluency in spoken English
- You’ll be physically active and enjoy the dynamic nature of an active store
PERKS
- Cost-price fruit & vegetables - we don’t profit from sales to our own team members
- Your birthday off*
*Once you’ve hit the 6 month mark and when working 32 hrs or more.
Our vision for a better food system is built on real human relationships and a diversity of experience, perspective and ideas. We are committed to equality of opportunity and welcome applications from individuals, regardless of age, gender, ethnicity, disability, sexual orientation, gender identity, socio-economic background, religion and/or belief.
