• Maintain an inviting, well-merchandised café and ensure products are fresh, available, and presented consistently.
• Monitor labor, sales, waste, and operational trends and work directly with ownership to improve performance.
• Build relationships with regular guests and maintain Feine's strong connection to the Conshohocken community.
• Identify opportunities for local partnerships, events, promotions, and other initiatives that can grow traffic, sales, and Feine's presence in the community.

What We're Looking For:

• 2+ years of management experience with responsibility for team performance, scheduling, training, and daily store operations.
• Professional coffee shop or café experience is required.
• Strong hands-on knowledge of espresso preparation, commercial grinders, brewing equipment, drink quality, and café workflow.
• Experience managing inventory, ordering, labor, waste, and operational standards.
• Strong leadership, communication, organization, and decision-making skills.
• A genuine understanding of hospitality and the importance of building long-term customer relationships.
• Experience working with fresh food or bakery products is strongly preferred.
• ServSafe Manager Certification preferred and required for the position.

Schedule

This is a full-time management position requiring early morning and weekend availability . Feine is primarily a morning and daytime business, without the late-night schedule common in full-service restaurant management.

Compensation & Perks:

• $45,000-$50,000 annual salary, based on experience.
• Performance-based bonus opportunities.
• Employee discounts.
• Direct partnership with ownership.
• Meaningful autonomy over the daily operation of the café.
• Opportunity to help shape the continued growth of an established independent business.
