"I’ve worked at Caffè Nero since 2004. One of the things I love most about my job is seeing my team progress in the same way I have. To develop my knowledge, and be a better manager, I recently completed a Coaching Apprenticeship. My aim has always been to put people at the front of everything else and the development programme has taught me how to do that in the best possible way, in line with the values I share with the Company."
A Place To
Learn and Grow
Maybe you are looking to take the next step on your career path? Perhaps you want a move into the growing world of coffee?
We are so proud to say that over 80% of our wonderful Store Managers were promoted from within – that’s always been the Nero way. And it doesn’t stop there – many of our Area and Regional Managers grew their careers in store, and it’s the same for our Head Office teams too.
The opportunities for development are endless, and every year hundreds of people move into new roles with us.
There is the chance of career progression for everyone that works at Caffè Nero.

From Barista to Store Manager and beyond, you will receive clear and practical training – such as perfecting coffee making skills, people management, and delivering a top rate customer experience in a supportive and structured way. We welcome and encourage everyone at Nero to contribute ideas and share feedback.

Barista
Our Baristas are the heartbeat of Caffè Nero. They don’t only tailor our customers' coffee, they make a positive difference to their day, too.
You don’t need any experience to become a Barista (we provide all the training you need), but you do need a great attitude, lots of energy, and a good level of conversational English.

Shift leaders work closely with the Store Managers to build a successful café.
Motivating the team, ensuring great customer service, and helping maintain and model our brand standards are key components of fast- progressing Shift Leaders.

Assistant Manager
Assistant Managers have learned what it takes to run a successful store.
Our training helps them discover how they can support and coach others, giving them space to help the Store Manager get the best from the team.
