Description
We are looking for someone to help us at certain times. You would be paid for hours worked in the café but hours could be very variable and I would need you available on-call. Experience with front of house and coffee making is pretty essential. We had a fantastic summer and are still pretty busy. I have had three workawayers with me and , and am now down to one till April. Needing help from April till maybe end of May. Really need someone with front of house and barista experience as i would like time off during this time.
You would be working alongside a local girl here, assisting her while i take a break. A friendly manner and someone who I only need to tell something once would be great. Our accommodation for this person would also be free.
We are very close to Beautiful Coromandel beaches and great walks. So a great base for you to explore the region. We are pretty rural so having your own car would be better.
We are also a farm shop and sell a range of goods including our own meat from the farm and jams and pickles from our orchard. We would like someone who speaks fluent English, has a friendly manner with the customers and has a good work ethic, is energetic and a self motivated personality.
If this sounds like you and you have your own camper we also have space where you could park up for free and help out too.
The Bach is within walking distance to the café and myself and my two boys live in the house next door
An hourly wage is paid for all hours worked, we can provide full accommodation, maximum number of days of help is 5 days and maximum of 40 hours per week in total. At this time of year will be a lot less.
I look forward to hearing from you.....
