One of the most important things that makes Caffè Nero unique is its people. We seek those with warmth and a positive outlook on life who genuinely enjoy working directly with people because we know they’re the key to our business.  We have fun whilst we work and like to get to know our regulars - we want our stores to reflect the neighbourhood and be a part of it.

For us it’s all about being part of a family, building something special and all sharing in the successes we achieve.

What you can expect

At Nero you will be part of a family, that’s how we think of things here. Our people are kind and share a passion for making the finest coffee and have fun doing it. Working for a company that has been voted ‘No 1 coffee company in the UK’ for nine of the last ten years (Allegra Strategies) – you will receive fantastic training both in and out of your store, learning to perfect your coffee making skills and to deliver a top rate experience to our customers.

We will also give you the opportunity to develop your career – fast! Over 80% of our current Store Managers started out as Baristas, and we have ambitious growth plans, looking to open 45 - 50 stores each year in the UK.


We work hard at Nero so it’s important that we enjoy what we do and who we work with. Making sure we have fun at work is essential but it is also important for us that we can have fun together outside of work too.

We organise loads of events throughout the year including our regular CN Club parties, Barista of the Year events, softball, school sports days, Italian wine and food tasting nights and many others.
