Job Description

Sweet July Cafe is a vibrant and welcoming establishment located in the heart of Charlotte, North Carolina. Known for its warm atmosphere and quality food and beverage offerings, the cafe has earned a solid reputation among locals and visitors alike. As part of the highly respected Marriott International family, Sweet July Cafe operates with a commitment to excellence, ensuring every customer experiences exceptional service. This connection to a global hospitality leader enriches the cafeteria’s standards and operational practices. Offering part-time employment opportunities, the cafe values individuals who are passionate about delivering memorable guest experiences while contributing to a dynamic team environment. The location at 201 E Trade St places it in a bustling area, attracting diverse clientele and requiring staff to be adaptive and responsive to customer needs throughout each shift.

The role available is that of a Cafe Attendant and Barista, designed for individuals who enjoy engaging with customers and managing food and beverage services efficiently. This non-management position offers flexible shifts with a preference for weekend availability, ideal for those seeking part-time work with a variety of scheduling options. The position demands a high level of attention to detail, professionalism, and a commitment to maintain the cafe’s high standards for cleanliness, safety, and service.

As a Cafe Attendant at Sweet July Cafe, your daily responsibilities will encompass completing opening and closing duties such as setting up supplies and tools, cleaning equipment and areas, and securing the premises at the end of shifts. You will be responsible for stocking and maintaining workstations, inputting orders into the cash register system, and handling payments with accuracy and efficiency. Preparing food and coffee beverages according to specified standards is a crucial part of the role, making coffee making skills highly valuable. Attention to timing for activating and deactivating appliances ensures operational readiness and safety.

Moreover, maintaining a clean and organized environment by clearing tables, washing dishes, and tidying work areas throughout the day contributes significantly to customer satisfaction. The role also involves financial responsibilities such as obtaining the correct change for daily business expectations, balancing the cash bank at shift end, and filing accurate reports while addressing any discrepancies. Compliance with company policies and security procedures is mandatory, promoting a safe working environment for both staff and guests.

Equally important is the requirement to embody the brand’s hospitality values by welcoming guests warmly, anticipating their needs, supporting team collaboration, and upholding confidentiality and professionalism at all times. Physical aspects of the job demand stamina and mobility, including standing or walking for extended periods, lifting or moving items up to 25 pounds, and navigating cramped or elevated spaces.
