What are the responsibilities and job description for the Shift Lead position at Scooter's Coffee?
Shift Lead
Not everyone wants to be a Shift Leader.
Some people want a job.
Some people want to help build something.
We’re looking for the second kind.
We’re a fast-growing, high-energy coffee drive-thru that believes great drinks are only half the equation. The other half? Creating an amazing place to work, developing future leaders, and building a culture people actually want to be a part of.
If you’re the person who naturally takes charge, coaches others when they need help, keeps things moving when it gets chaotic, and genuinely cares about helping a team succeed, keep reading.
The Vibe
We’re fast.
We’re fun.
We’re obsessed with the customer experience.
We celebrate wins, reward hard work, run team competitions, and believe people perform best when they feel appreciated.
You’ll work directly for an owner who genuinely invests in her team, supports the community, and believes businesses should make a positive impact beyond just selling coffee.
We’re not building “just another coffee shop.”
We’re building the kind of place people are proud to work at.
What You’ll Actually Be Doing
- Running the shift and keeping everything flowing smoothly
- Coaching baristas in real time (without making it weird)
- Helping new team members grow their confidence and skills
- Giving feedback, celebrating wins, and holding the standards
- Supporting speed, quality, and customer experience
- Completing prep work and operational tasks
- Managing cleaning and daily checklists
- Jumping in wherever needed when the rush gets absolutely unhinged (lol)
- Leading by example every single shift
You’re Probably a Great Fit If…
- You naturally step up when others need direction
- You love a fast-paced environment, and the rush doesn’t scare you
- You enjoy helping people improve
- You notice problems before they become bigger problems
- You bring positive energy without bringing drama
- You care about culture just as much as results
- You want leadership experience and room to grow
Perks That Actually Matter
- Flexible scheduling
- Employee discounts
- Leadership development and mentorship
- Team competitions and rewards
- Real opportunities for advancement as we continue to grow
- A workplace where your effort is noticed and appreciated
The Truth
This role isn’t for someone looking to clock in and clock out.
It’s for someone who wants to learn leadership, make an impact, and be part of building something special.
If that sounds like you, we’d love to meet you.
Let’s make great coffee, develop great people, and have a lot of fun doing it!
