Job Description

Aramark is a global leader in food services, facilities management, and uniform services, operating in 15 different countries across multiple industries. The company has established a strong reputation for delivering high-quality food and service experiences to millions of customers daily. Aramark’s mission is deeply rooted in fostering positive outcomes not only for their customers but also for their staff, business partners, communities, and the planet. They prioritize creating a diverse and inclusive workplace where all employees have equal opportunities to thrive and succeed. With a strong commitment to professional growth, Aramark invests heavily in skill development, career advancement programs, and leadership training to nurture talent and help employees realize their full potential.

Joining Aramark as a Barista Staff Member offers an exciting opportunity to be part of a dynamic, fast-paced, and social work environment that encourages passion and personal growth. As a full-time barista, you will be responsible for preparing a variety of specialty beverages like coffee and tea, with a strong emphasis on adhering to brand standards for quality and presentation. Beyond crafting exceptional drinks, you will also assist in food preparation and maintain a clean, organized, and hygienic workspace. Interacting with customers to provide friendly, efficient, and personalized service is a cornerstone of this role, helping to create a welcoming atmosphere and positive customer experiences.

The position also requires proficiency in operating register/POS systems for accurate financial transactions, including handling cash and credit card payments while following company protocols for cash management. Maintaining inventory levels, such as stocking beverage coolers and tableware, is essential to ensure smooth daily operations. Physical demands of the job include lifting, bending, pushing, pulling, and extended periods of walking or standing, making stamina and physical readiness important.

Aramark’s commitment to safety and sanitation means that all baristas must comply with strict food handling and hygiene regulations and must obtain the necessary Food Handling Certification. Employees are expected to follow dress codes and wear required personal protective equipment (PPE) when necessary to maintain a safe work environment.

This role is not only suitable for individuals with prior barista or customer service experience but also welcomes motivated candidates looking to develop their skills while working in a supportive, growth-oriented setting. The company encourages flexibility and may offer remote or flexible work options for certain roles within other departments, although this particular position is site-based.

Aramark offers internships and student opportunities that provide valuable work experience and potential career pathways, reflecting the company’s dedication to developing future talent through comprehensive training and educational programs. Working as a barista at Aramark means being part of a team where career growth opportunities are unlimited, and where employees are empowered to pursue what excites them the most in their professional journeys.
