Alpha Coffee Is a Different Kind Of Coffee Company:

Here at Alpha Coffee every employee becomes part of a family. Our team believes in our culture and willingly embodies our mission statement (Drink Good, Do Good, Be Great.). We are proud to have a team of people who each bring something special to the table.
We look to hire people with the warrior ethos - strong individuals who are willing to win as a team, lead by example, and go through life with a sense of honesty and integrity. We are committed to the training and development of our people and expect the same level of commitment from our employees.
This is a place where having fun and giving back to a select group of charities and the local community are part of what makes us more than just a great cup of coffee.
If you enjoy connecting with people, providing exceptional customer service, and value the importance of quality coffee, we want to hear from you.
This is NOT a seasonal or short term position, we are looking for those willing to commit to a minimum of 9+ months with Alpha, and a minimum of 20 hours per week/no less than 3 shifts per week.
We are growing and the opportunities for rapid advancement are significant if you have a strong work ethic, are a team player and demonstrate leadership skills.
We have an ever growing list of employee benefits as well. Team members who have been with us over one year are eligible for a matching 401K. We offer an employee discount and opportunities to participate in employee "adventure events".
Our ideal candidate is someone interested in a long term position, and looking to get in on the ground floor and grow with our company.
Please submit your resume to be considered for an interview. We would love to see you become part of the Alpha Family!
