at SEND Coffee
Be a force for good in the coffee industry by supporting people with SEND whilst drinking great coffee.
SEND, standing for Special Educational Needs and Disabilities, is a coffee company delivering real impact through our charity & social enterprise model. We work with young people aged 18-25 with special needs and disabilities, training them up to be baristas in a competitive market.
We are a management team with combined experience of well over a hundred shop openings or operations, making us one of the most experienced teams in speciality coffee. We still work barista shifts ourselves, as does everyone in the company, meaning this is an opportunity to join a barista led organisation.
We have three main shops, Hidden Coffee in Camden, Clarnico in Hackney, and Curators in City of London. Our head office & training roastery space is also in Camden.

This role would suit someone looking to make the jump from a barista or head barista role into something more formalised. Whilst we require no formal qualifications or accolades, many of our team bring an incredible amount of them to the role to the massive benefit of our beneficiaries.
