From simple beginnings 52 years ago with one store in Seattle, Starbucks is now a global brand across more than 50 countries and has been in New Zealand for 25 years with 35 stores around the country. At Starbucks it is all about connection and family! Starbucks New Zealand is owned and operated by a New Zealand business. Tahua Partners provides unique employment opportunities across multiple brands (Burger King, Popeye’s, Number one shoes and Hannah’s), so you are part of a much larger family. People are at the heart of who we are, the people represent one of our pillars here at Starbucks. We believe that working together with each other, our customers, and our community makes a positive impact – that is what defines family at Starbucks. Starbucks creates that warm and welcoming environment that makes you want to keep coming back. It is a place where you meet lifelong friends and get to be a part of something bigger than coffee. What are we looking for? Aside from creating that amazing customer experience, we want to work with you to create an amazing work environment for the team (from Barista to Store Manager), consistently make drinks that is of the highest quality, serve food fast and hot, and get down and dirty to make the store spotless for our customers. We also want an enterprising person who has a positive mindset and is quick, calm, and collected.
