Café Volunteer

RSPB

Job Description

Imagine a day out without a coffee and cake! Or a refreshing cup of tea. Our café volunteers understand the importance of a little break and help visitors to relax and refuel during their visit to Frampton. We have different roles available, so you're bound to find something to suit.

**Baker**

You'll be behind the scenes in the kitchen area (although with our open kitchen you'll still be able to see what's going on) helping prepare food. One day you could be baking as many scones as you can (think Bake-off technical without Paul and Pru judging) and another day making a batch of chilli for the jacket potatoes. You'll need to follow food hygiene, allergen and quality controls, but training will be given in these. This role will really suit you if you love to cook or bake.

**Barista**

You'll be making coffees and hot chocolates to order on our Barista machine. This role is great for someone who loves the smell of freshly ground coffee and a bit of theatre! And it's also a great way to get training and experience that can help you in a career in hospitality.

**Server**

You'll be warmly welcoming people, taking orders, making teas and coffees and serving counter items like scones and cake, all with a smile. This role will particularly suit you if you are someone that likes being around people. You'll meet a lot of them in this role!

**Pot washer & tidy upperer**

You'll be mainly back of house but a vital cog in the smooth running of the café. Pot washing is a priority to ensure there's no build up as well as ensuring equipment and stock is readily available to the servers. As a break from the sink, you'll also be keeping an eye on the tables, ensuring that they are cleared and clean!

**What's in it for you?**

By joining us in any of the roles our café you can:

- join an enthusiastic team and make new friends

- develop your hospitality skills and put them into practice

- help us raise funds towards saving nature

Food Hygiene Level 2 and Allergen Awareness training is mandatory for all working in the café. You'll be provided with the necessary induction, training, and equipment do this role well and safely, and we can cover the travel costs between home and your place of volunteering.

You can choose which shifts to do to fit round your other commitments.

Good luck with your application
