Barista

About the Role

As we prepare to open the doors to our very first tashas café in Greece, we are looking for passionate and skilled Baristas to join our opening team.

At tashas, coffee is more than a beverage — it's often the first impression, the beginning of a conversation, and a small daily ritual that guests look forward to. We believe every cup should be crafted with care, consistency and attention to detail.

As a Barista, you will play an important role in creating memorable guest experiences through beautifully prepared beverages, genuine hospitality and a commitment to excellence. Whether you're preparing the perfect cappuccino, recommending a favourite drink, or welcoming a regular guest by name, you'll help bring the spirit of tashas to life every day.

Your Mission
