Cafe Manager

About BYND Coffee Bar (IG: @byndcoffeebar)

BYND is more than a coffee bar — it's a place designed for every hour. Morning rituals, midday focus, evening connection. Located at 338 Adelaide Street West, Toronto, we serve every moment with the same intention. We're looking for a leader who understands that hospitality is an art form.

About the Role

As Cafe Manager, you set the pace and the standard for the whole bar. You lead the team through every rush, keep the numbers healthy, and make sure every guest leaves as a regular in the making. You know your coffee as well as your P&L, and you build a team that takes pride in the craft.

Responsibilities

• Oversee daily operations, including opening/closing procedures, scheduling, and cash handling

• Recruit, train, and coach baristas and support staff to BYND standards

• Manage inventory, ordering, and vendor relationships to keep the bar running smoothly

• Monitor sales performance and labor costs, and report on key metrics

• Maintain compliance with food safety, health, and licensing regulations

• Resolve guest concerns with the same care and attention that defines every BYND interaction

• Uphold BYND's commitment to craft, precision, and artistry across the team

What We're Looking For

• Previous experience managing a cafe, coffee bar, or restaurant

• Strong leadership and team-building skills

• Solid understanding of coffee origins, brewing methods, and espresso technique

• Comfort with scheduling, inventory, and basic financial reporting

• A team player who thrives in a fast-paced, quality-driven setting

• Someone who understands that every guest deserves the full experience

What We Stand For

Craft First — We take the quality of every drink, dish, and interaction seriously. Precision and artistry are not optional — they are the baseline.

Every Hour Matters — From 7am espresso to 10pm wine, we serve every moment with the same intention.

People Build Places — BYND is the people behind the bar. We invest in your growth, celebrate your creativity, and build a team that genuinely looks forward to coming in.
