- You don’t need to know coffee. But you do need to know how to get things done.

I barely drank coffee when I started my coffee business. So I’m not going to insist that you arrive knowing everything either. We’re looking for sharp, curious, hands-on people to work with the founder across our cafés, Korean restaurant, coffee beans and ice cream businesses.

What you could work on:

- Making outlets run better
- Growing coffee sales
- Building partnerships
- Improving customer experiences
- Turning new ideas into actual businesses

Who we’re looking for:
- Recent graduates, early-career applicants and career changers are welcome
- Hospitality experience is welcome but not essential
- You notice problems and take initiative
- You’re comfortable with numbers and good with people
- You follow through without repeated reminders
- You’re willing to work on the floor as well as behind a laptop
- You want responsibility and are keen to learn





You’ll learn directly from the founder. Some days involve spreadsheets; others involve customers, vendors and practical problem-solving.

Location and relocation

This is an on-site role in Chennai, not remote. Applicants from Mumbai, Bengaluru and across India are welcome, but you must be willing to relocate to Chennai.

Compensation

Market-competitive salary based on capability and experience. Accommodation is ordinarily self-arranged; exceptional candidates may receive accommodation support, agreed upfront in the offer.

How to apply

Apply through LinkedIn with your CV, a short introduction, which business vertical interests you and why, and one example of something you took ownership of and improved at work, college or independently.
