Are you passionate about great coffee, welcoming spaces, and bringing people together?
We're looking for an enthusiastic and community-minded Café Supervisor to lead the day-to‑day operations of Poro Café, a warm and welcoming community café which will be opening soon within Finncare's residential aged care community in Thornlands. Working alongside a dedicated team of volunteers, you'll help create a unique destination where Finnish traditions meet Australian spirit.
This is more than a café role. It's an opportunity to help build a gathering place where residents, families, volunteers, staff, and members of the wider community can connect over quality coffee, homemade treats, conversation, and culture.
