Roastery Production Assistant

For the one who takes pride in the details, moves with purpose, and keeps the roastery running Move like a jaguar. If those words feel like they were written for you, you may be the Roastery Production Assistant we're searching for.

You won't be roasting coffee, but you'll play a critical role in making sure every bag is packaged with care, every order is accurate, inventory is organized, and production runs smoothly.
