Cafe General Manager

We've been roasting speciality coffee for over 30 years. From humble beginnings as a little coffee cart in Auckland, NZ, Allpress has evolved into a sophisticated brand that stands for flavour and service. Right from the start three core principals have formed the backbone of our business - People, Flavour and Innovation.

We are united in our genuine care for each other, our customers, and our belief in what we do. We need great people who will bring their imagination, skills and most importantly, their passion to our business.

We are looking for an experienced general manager to lead the growth of our new café set to open in Farringdon.

People sit at the centre of everything we do. We need someone who can build the team, set the culture and lead with care so genuine hospitality comes naturally. When the team feel supported and confident, the customer experience reflects it.

Alongside this, you'll bring strong operational experience to deliver a smooth launch, establish the right systems and set the café up for success. You'll also bring adaptability, leading with agility and approaching challenges with curiosity and a willingness to find solutions beyond the obvious.
