Job Description

We are now hiring a Lead Barista to oversee our new Espresso Bar. We are looking for someone with a friendly and upbeat attitude with an eye for the fine details. The ideal candidate has true passion for coffee–as well as in interest in cheese and quality local food. Overall, the Lead Barista is responsible for maintaining high quality espresso, and fostering a positive and engaging environment that keeps both customers and staff happy.

COMPANY DESCRIPTION
At Campbell & Co, we believe in the power of good food and in sharing it with others. Our focus is on locally-sourced and well-made goods–items that celebrate our community of NYC producers and upstate NY farmers. We love to share the stories of our makers, from the rooftop farmers growing heirloom tomatoes that overlook the Manhattan skyline to the cheesemakers aging provolone below the streets of Brooklyn. Our cheese case features more than 100 carefully-curated domestic and imported cheeses. Our beer and cider selection is just as large and unique – we love sour beers and we hope you do too! The Campbell & Co. kitchen and catering program utilizes the best ingredients from the season to create sandwiches, salads, breakfast biscuits, cheese boards, desserts, and more. Over the years we’ve worked hard to earn a devoted following and are known as much for our warm and friendly customer service as our products (our breakfast biscuits are legendary!).

Campbell & Co. started out six years ago as Campbell Cheese & Grocery, a family-run neighborhood specialty store in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. We pride ourselves on having a thoughtful, respectful team and do our best to maintain a supportive, low-stress work environment.
