SHIFT LEADER - Cornelscourt

Exciting news! We're opening up a new location in South County Dublin later this Summer!

We’re opening applications now, but we’ll start contacting candidates from July – so if you don’t hear from us right away, we haven’t forgotten you. At Sprout, our Shift Leaders play a BIG role in shaping how our restaurants feel, for both our team and our customers. You’ll lead the shift from the front, keep things moving, and help create a space where people want to come back (and work in) again and again.

This is a role for someone who loves people, leads by example, and thrives in a fast-moving, high-standard environment.

Reporting to: General Manager

Contract: Full-time

Pay: €15–€16 per hour depending on experience and role

• Customer Focused – Create memorable experiences for every guest, turning complaints into comebacks.
• Team Connector – Build strong relationships, promote open feedback, and help keep the vibe positive and focused.
• Performance Driver – Spot issues, give real-time feedback, and help the team get better every day.
• Recognition Champion – Celebrate the wins, call out great work, and foster a culture of appreciation.
• Clean + Fresh – Own the look and feel of the space — from clean floors to perfect fridge displays and good tunes.
• Feedback Flow – Actively gather and action customer feedback.
• Pulse Monitor – Keep an eye on key metrics like NPS to improve customer experience and spot trends.

• Good Level of English – You can confidently communicate direction with our team and our customers.
• Natural Leadership Skills – You lead by example and know how to bring out the best in others.
