We’re known for exceptional hospitality, thoughtful presentation, and consistently great coffee. Our team represents the gold standard of coffee cart service: professional, warm, and detail-driven.

The Opportunity

This role is for someone who wants more than a typical barista shift.

As an Event Lead Barista, you’ll be trusted to represent Selah Coffee on-site, serve high-quality espresso drinks, and help ensure events run smoothly from setup to breakdown. You’ll balance craft, hospitality, and light logistics, often acting as the lead presence at events.

  • Prepare espresso-based beverages with consistency, speed, and attention to detail
  • Lead on-site execution including setup, breakdown, and event flow
  • Manage high-volume service while staying calm and organized
  • Maintain clean, polished workstations and equipment
  • Support inventory tracking and restocking for events
  • Drive a company van to and from event locations when required

Who This Role Is For

  • Someone with barista or customer service experience (event experience is a plus)
  • Someone who enjoys leading, problem-solving, and taking ownership on-site
  • Someone who communicates clearly and works well independently or with a team
  • Someone who is detail-oriented, reliable, and professional under pressure
  • Someone with flexible availability, including evenings and weekends
  • Someone with a valid driver’s license and clean driving record

Pay & Perks

  • Consistent scheduling and visibility into upcoming events
  • Opportunity to grow into leadership or expanded roles
  • Supportive team culture built around excellence and hospitality

Why Work With Selah Coffee

You won’t just clock in and pour drinks. You’ll be part of a team that values people, presentation, and doing things the right way. If you care about craft, hospitality, and being proud of the work you represent, this is a place to grow.
