About Kimberley Café & Social House
Kimberley Café & Social House is a daytime café and wellness destination located in a beautifully restored 100-year-old Beaver Valley landmark.
Our vision is simple: Coffee. Creativity. Self-Care.
We are here to create a warm, welcoming space where locals and visitors can slow down, feel at home, and leave a little better than when they arrived.
The Role
We are looking for a permanent, year-round Barista who can become one of the steady, familiar faces of Kimberley Café & Social House after the summer season.
This is not a short-term seasonal role. We are looking for the right person to train, support, and build with over time. Our hope is that this becomes a long-term role for someone who enjoys hospitality, takes pride in their work, and wants to be part of a café that is growing into the community.
Previous barista experience is an asset, but it is not required. We can train the right person on espresso, drink preparation, café routines, and our service standards. What matters most is reliability, warmth, attention to detail, and a genuine comfort working with guests throughout the day.
What You’ll Do
- Prepare and serve espresso drinks, drip coffee, teas, cold beverages, and seasonal specialty drinks.
- Provide friendly, attentive service and help create a welcoming experience for every guest.
- Learn and follow our drink recipes, café standards, and service routines.
- Process orders and payments accurately through the POS system, including cash handling.
- Assist with light food preparation, including sandwiches, salads, baked goods, and grab-and-go items.
- Keep the bar, prep areas, guest areas, and café space clean, stocked, and organized.
- Restock supplies and communicate with the Café Manager when items are running low.
- Follow food safety, cleanliness, and quality standards.
- Work respectfully and cooperatively with the rest of the café team.

- Available to work weekends on a regular basis.
- Able to reliably start early morning shifts.
- Organized and able to multitask during busy periods.

Previous experience in a café, restaurant, bakery, retail, hospitality, or customer service environment is helpful, but not required.
Food Handler Certification is an asset, or must be obtained within 60 days of starting.
