Barista

DESCRIPTION

Barista: Starbucks at The Home Depot Headquarters
455 Paces Ferry Rd, Atlanta, GA 30339

Make someone's day, one cup at a time.

Cup of Joe Cafes is excited to be operating the Starbucks at The Home Depot's headquarters, and we're looking for friendly, guest-focused Baristas to join our team.

Our guests are thousands of Home Depot associates who start their mornings with us, fuel up before meetings, and come back in the afternoon. They're regulars, and you'll know them by name and by drink. As a Barista, you're the face of the store and the heart of the guest experience.

What You'll Do

• Craft every drink right. Make Starbucks beverages and food to recipe and brand standard, every order, every time.
• Make guests feel taken care of. A warm welcome and a genuine connection are what bring people back.
• Own your station. Keep it clean, stocked, and ready for the rush.
• Keep it safe. Follow all food safety and handling procedures.
• Have your team's back. Support your Shift Lead and teammates, and step in wherever you're needed.
• Be someone your team can count on. Show up consistently and bring positive energy.
• Welcome new teammates. Help train new partners as you grow in your role.
• Stay curious. The more you know about the menu, the craft, and the brand, the better every interaction gets.

You're a Great Fit If You

• Are a people person, and hospitality comes naturally to you, not from a script
• Thrive when things move fast and stay steady when the rush hits
• Take pride in the details, whether it's a drink recipe or a clean counter
• Are dependable, so your team and guests can count on you
• Communicate well and work easily with others
• Like staying active and on your feet for your whole shift
• Want to grow. Most of our Shift Leads started as Baristas.

No coffee or café experience? No problem. We'll train you on everything you need to know.
