What the pay depends on

  • the venue: a chain café, an independent specialty coffee shop or a hotel outlet;
  • the pay basis: a monthly salary or an hourly rate;
  • the skills: latte art, roasting knowledge or experience with a specific espresso machine;
  • branding and any customer-service targets the employer sets.

Season and shift hours

Winter in Hong Kong runs from December to February and summer from June to August. A barista job starting in November covers the cooler months, while a summer start covers the warmest ones. Say in your request which hours you need, such as early mornings or weekends.

Districts and what to put in the request

Name the district where the job is based: Central, Kowloon, Sha Tin, Tsuen Wan or Tuen Mun. Describe the coffee menu, the equipment used, the hours, and whether you offer a monthly salary or an hourly rate. A photo of the café helps candidates reply with a fitting offer.
