Blank Street is hiring a Barista in Glasgow. This is a live vacancy listed on the company's own careers board at the time of publication.
About the role
Front-of-counter coffee work covers more than drinks. A shift means opening checks, stock rotation, temperature logs, keeping the machine and grinder honest through the day, and reading the queue well enough to know when to call for help before it backs up onto the street.
Blank Street runs compact coffee shops with automated espresso kit and a tight menu, a model designed for speed and consistency across sites. Full duties, requirements and compensation are on the employer's posting, which we have not reproduced here.
Glasgow's independent cafe and restaurant scene is one of the strongest in the UK outside London, and chain coffee is a well-trodden route into it. Managers across the city read a season at a busy branded store as proof you can hold a standard under volume, which opens doors that a purely independent CV sometimes does not.
Chains also tend to document their training, so you come away with recorded food-safety and service qualifications rather than informal experience. That paperwork matters when you apply somewhere that has to satisfy an audit. See the restaurant jobs board and our resources pages.
