Baristas

Pret is where passionate, hardworking, wonderful people (like you!) find the confidence and skills they need to grow and choose their unique paths. And the proof is in the pudding - 80%+ of our Managers and 20% of our Support Centre teams (including our CEO, Pano) started on the shop floor. What we're looking for Our Baristas are brilliant team players who are passionate about what they brew. You'll handmake and lovingly pour all our Barista-prepared drinks (ice ones too). Taking your responsibility to make people their favourite drinks seriously. Before pouring a single customer's single espresso, you'll undergo weeks of training. Giving you all the skills, pace and confidence you need (or need topping up) to make the perfect organic Pret coffee.

• Be kind, honest and generous: bring genuine warmth and your authentic self to work every day.
• Bring your passion: share our passion for exceptional customer service.
• Spread joy every day: small acts of kindness (like giving away a free coffee on the house) are a big part of what makes the Pret experience special.
• Experience needed: You're a team player with a passion for coffee, proud to serve every cup with care and energy-and always ready to learn and grow.
