Market Trader / Sales & Warehouse Assistant - Sicilian Dessert Brand - Casa Cannoli - London

Casa Cannoli is a London Sicilian dessert business - fresh cannoli and tiramisù, sold at street markets and events across the city. We've been doing this for 15 years, and we're a small team looking for one more person to join us.
What you’ll be doing
- Running our market stall - serving customers, filling cannoli to order, handling cash and card.
- Working events, parties and private catering bookings.
- Restocking and keeping our warehouse in North London organised, checking deliveries and rotating stock.
It’s a mix of customer-facing and behind-the-scenes. No two weeks look the same.
The hours, honestly
Around 30 hours a week over 3 days on average. Most weeks follow a regular pattern, and shifts are long days - typically 9 to 11 hours.
Two things to be clear about. We cater events, which often come in at short notice, so we need someone who can pick up extra shifts when they land - usually weekends, sometimes evenings. Event shifts pay a higher hourly rate than your normal shifts, so they’re worth having. And we’re a team of two: when one person is on holiday or off sick, the other covers the extra shifts. It’s the trade-off for a small team, and it cuts both ways - you get the same cover when you’re off.
December is busier across the board; the quieter winter months are lighter.
What we’re looking for
- Someone who’s good with people and genuinely enjoys selling – most of the job is talking to customers.
- You’ll need to be physically fit, as there’s regular lifting and moving of stock and stall equipment.
- Weekend availability is essential, since that’s when the markets and events run.
- Reliability matters more than experience; we’ll teach you the product.
- Having your own car is a big plus – it means you can run events independently, and we pay mileage on top of your hourly rate. Not essential, but it’ll open up more shifts for you.
- Interest in Italian food is a bonus.
What we offer
- £14.80 an hour, above the London Living Wage and reviewed annually.
- Event shifts paid at a premium rate.
- Mileage paid when you use your own car for events.
- And a stable business – 15 years in, still growing – where you’ll learn the whole thing, not just one corner of it.
You must have the right to work in the UK.
