Full and part-time staff needed for the Copper Beech Cafe opening in North Dulwich in May


Recommended Posts

The Copper Beech Caf?, opening early May, will serve JAGS Sports Club and its members, as well as guests and the public. We are looking for a team of motivated individuals to create and produce our menu of healthy and delicious soups, salads, sandwiches, sweet and savoury treats, fresh juices and smoothies. The team will also be responsible for making a variety of high grade coffee-based drinks, with beans from local roasters Volcano coffee, and for serving a small selection of locally produced beers and wines.


Barista experience is preferable but not necessary, as all staff will receive full training from Volcano Coffee. An interest in food is key, as food will be prepared in-house and the menu will evolve. Each staff member will take their turn in the kitchen and the whole team will be invited to suggest dishes and be involved in recipe development.


The environment will be dynamic and service will be fast-paced, with a high customer turnover and large takeaway trade. Staff will be expected to work together as a team to create the most enjoyable customer and team experience, especially during busy periods.


Successful applicants will be friendly, flexible, enthusiastic and proactive, and will demonstrate the desire to create an inviting environment for a hugely eclectic audience. This caf? will focus on high quality, delicious, locally-sourced and sustainable products, and will be an opportunity for guests to unwind, recharge, escape, study or simply be.


There are a number of positions available and we are hiring both full time and part time staff.

Please send your CV along with a short covering letter to [email protected], stipulating your preferred working basis (full time or part-time) by 5th April. Interviews will take place w/c 10th April. Successful candidates will start on 24th April.

    • Having enjoyed a day with Sayce HolmesLewis, I understand what you’re saying.  I appreciate your courage responding on here. 
    • Thank you to everyone who has already shared their thoughts on this. Dawson Heights Estate in the 1980s, while not as infamous as some other estates, did have its share of anti-social behaviour and petty crime. My brother often used the estate as a shortcut when coming home from his girlfriend’s house, despite my parents warning him many times to avoid it. Policing during that era had a distinctly “tough on crime” approach. Teenagers, particularly those from working-class areas or minority communities, were routinely stopped, questioned, and in some cases, physically handled for minor infractions like loitering, skateboarding, or underage drinking. Respect for authority wasn’t just expected—it was demanded. Talking back to a police officer could escalate a situation very quickly, often with harsh consequences. This was a very different time. There were no body cameras, dash cams, or social media to hold anyone accountable or to provide a record of encounters. Policing was far more physical and immediate, with few technological safeguards to check officer behaviour. My brother wasn’t known to the police. He held a full-time job at the Army and Navy store in Lewisham and had recently been accepted into the army. Yet, on that night, he ran—not because he was guilty of anything—but because he knew exactly what would happen if he were caught on an estate late at night with a group of other boys. He was scared, and rightfully so.
    • I'm sure many people would look to see if someone needed help, and if so would do something about it, and at least phone the police if necessary if they didn't feel confident helping directly. At least I hope so. I'm sorry you don't feel safe, but surely ED isn't any less safe than most places. It's hardly a hotbed of crime, it's just that people don't post on here if nothing has happened! And before that, there were no highwaymen,  or any murders at all .... In what way exactly have we become "a soft apologetic society", whatever that means?
