Barista

Introduction:

Every Cup Matters At Summer Moon SC, we build a consistent and compelling experience through strong leadership and everyday execution — creating the path toward a place people can trust, love, and return to. As a barista, you are the face of that experience. You bring the energy, care, and speed that makes guests feel seen and valued. Whether you're steaming milk, ringing up a regular, or resetting the bar during a rush — your presence and execution help define what Summer Moon is all about. You are expected to live out our core values: We love people We think like owners We pursue excellence We serve fast, fresh, and friendly 1. Guest Experience and Drink Craft Baristas lead the Summer Moon experience through speed, warmth, and execution. You ensure every guest feels seen — and every drink is made right. Greet each guest with eye contact, energy, and a smile Ask for the guest's name first and use it twice before entering it into the system Offer drink/pastry pairings to elevate the order experience Prepare all drinks within 3 minutes, following recipes precisely Tailor orders to guest preferences while upholding consistency Ring orders quickly and accurately, maintaining a clean register area 2. Supporting the Team and the Floor You are essential to the flow of the store. From helping your team to resetting your station, your actions reflect ownership and excellence. Jump in where needed — milk, register, bar, lobby, dishes Help reset between rushes and maintain pace across shifts Complete cleaning and stocking tasks without needing reminders Follow instructions from Shift Supervisors, Trainers, and leadership Communicate clearly, respond to feedback with action, and remain present 3. Growth, Initiative, and Leadership We grow by leading ourselves first. You show leadership by being consistent, coachable, and committed to the mission — not by your title. Take initiative when you see what needs to be done Seek feedback and apply it Ask questions when unsure, and show others what you've learned Express interest in future roles by first mastering your current one Lead by example — in pace, presence, and how you treat people 4.
