Working closely and side-by-side with the General Manager , you will help bring the STORIES experience to life from the first cup of coffee in the morning to the final guest leaving an evening event. The ideal candidate is polished, personable, proactive, and naturally attentive to details. You enjoy creating experiences, connecting with people, and being part of a team where no two days look exactly the same.

Has an interest in hospitality, coffee, events, marketing, or creative work. Understands that the details matter — from the presentation of a coffee to the way a client is welcomed into the building. Why STORIES? STORIES is more than a coffee shop and more than an event venue. It is a hospitality-driven space where coffee, food, design, events, and people come together. This role offers the opportunity to become part of that experience and grow with the business. You will work directly with the General Manager and have exposure to multiple sides of the operation — from Bistro service and events to client experience, sales, and brand development. If you are looking for a role where you can grow, contribute creatively, work with people, and be part of something bigger than a traditional hospitality position, we'd love to meet you.
