About this role
General Manager, The Mindful Café About The Mindful Café
The Mindful Café is an independent organic café offering thoughtfully prepared food, specialty coffee and tea, smoothies, baked goods, catering and private events. We combine high-quality ingredients and personal service with the warmth of a neighborhood café.
We are seeking an experienced, hands-on General Manager to lead daily operations, develop our team, strengthen our coffee and beverage program, improve operating systems and help move the café toward sustainable profitability.
This is not simply a shift-management position. We are looking for an experienced operator who understands both hospitality and the business of running a successful café.
What Success Looks Like
The General Manager will be responsible for five primary outcomes:
Improve financial performance and move the café toward profitability. Deliver an exceptional customer experience, with coffee and beverages as a core part of the café. Build, train and lead a strong, accountable team. Create reliable systems so daily operations do not require constant owner involvement. Make the café increasingly efficient, consistent and repeatable while preserving its neighborhood character.
