At Starbucks, we're not just about brewing great coffee, we're about brewing great leaders too. Here your voice is brewed into everything we do. Here you’ll take the lead of the shift, working with your team of baristas to create our Starbucks Experience for our customers with high quality service, beverages and products, whilst creating our third place environment.
To be successful in the role, you’ll have previous experience in leading a team in a dynamic, fast-paced and customer-focused retail or hospitality environment.

We’re looking for leaders with a growth mindset and an appetite for growing your leadership career.
You’ll spend your time running shifts with our customers at the core, through coaching your team and creating a positive learning environment for your partners on shift. You’ll be solving problems in the moment, as you’ll be responsible, alongside the store management team, to achieve results through making an impact and achieving goals and creating our best moments through operational excellence. You’ll be an ambassador for our partner networks, making sure our partners know, here they belong.

- Taking ownership of our KPIs including labour efficiency, waste reduction, and sales performance
- Ensuring shift deployment meets planned roles and routines, adjusting to optimise customer experience

Training schedule
The Training for this Apprenticeship will take place in the work place.
Each Apprentice will be supported throughout the apprenticeship by a structured programme of teaching, e-learning, face to face training and workplace mentoring; this will encourage and help them to meet the requirements of the new standards and will prepare them for the end of point assessment. Once the apprentice has completed a minimum of 12 months training and the employer and Inspiro's regional trainer confirm they have met all the requirements of the standard they will be put through to end point assessment.
