Join Our Team as a Team Lead at Piñon Coffee House!

At Piñon Coffee House, we believe coffee brings people together. Our mission is simple: “Enriching lives through the love of coffee.” As a Team Lead, you’ll play a vital role in shaping our café culture—supporting the Store Manager, guiding the barista team, and making sure every customer leaves with a smile (and maybe a bag of our legendary coffee).

⭐ What You’ll Do

• Lead by example, ensuring every customer receives efficient, friendly, superior service with a “customer first” mindset.

• Support the Store Manager in overseeing daily café operations and step in as lead when needed.

• Maintain a clean, safe, inclusive, and organized café environment.

• Train, coach, and develop team members to deliver quality drinks and service.

• Communicate promotions, product knowledge, and company goals effectively to the team.

• Act as a keyholder, helping with opening/closing responsibilities and protecting both product and people.

• Use checklists and standard procedures to execute smooth, quality shifts.

• Assist with ordering, receiving, and managing café supplies.

What We’re Looking For

• A natural leader with strong people skills, able to stay calm and positive in a fast-paced environment.

• Dependable, punctual, and committed to being a reliable part of the team.

• Ability to lift up to 50 lbs, stand/walk for an entire shift, and perform physical tasks (bending, reaching, pulling, etc.).

• Experience in food service, coffee, or customer service is a plus—but a great attitude and willingness to learn go even further!

• Food handler’s certification (or ability to obtain within 30 days).

• Tech-friendly and comfortable using Point-of-Sale systems.

Why Work With Us

• Be part of a locally owned, growing company with New Mexican roots.

• Work with a company that takes pride in their work and culture, as we are a 2025 best place to work. 

• Opportunities for advancement into management roles.

• Employee discounts on our iconic coffee, food, and merchandise.

• A supportive culture that values teamwork, growth, and respect.

• Great Health, Dental, Vision and 401K plans.
• Base wage with tips range from $12.00 - $19.00 an hour. 

Location & Schedule

• Positions available at multiple Albuquerque Piñon Coffee House locations.

• Flexible scheduling, including early mornings, evenings, and weekends.
