Who are you working for?
My name is Jai, I own IN SITU café and love what I do. I have been in hospo for 5 years myself and have a young family of my own. As much as I love cooking alongside the chefs, I am the best Barista in Christchurch. Ha…ha… That’s what our customers are saying after their first sip of coffee and become a regular. I do have a small team and you will be working with Kurumi from Japan, Hira From Nepal, Jai from India and Chunkit from Hong kong. The team are absolute legends, but could use a hand as we continue to grow and evolve.
