EVER DREAMED OF RUNNING YOUR OWN SUPER COOL CAFÉ??
Imagine running your own neighborhood café, organic cold-pressed juice bar and smoothie bar on Boulder's iconic West Pearl Street.
Great daytime hours. Amazing coffee, fresh juices and smoothies. An incredible community. And the opportunity to build something truly special.
The best part? You've got the entire Big Red F Restaurant Group behind you!
We're looking for an energetic, passionate, hospitality-obsessed GENERAL MANAGER to take the reins at Wonder Press.
Someone who LOVES people, thrives on building great teams and knows that a great café is about so much more than what's in the cup.
It's about CONNECTION. Creating regulars. Building community. Making someone's day a little better.
We want Wonder Press to become the kind of neighborhood café that locals can't imagine living without. Heck, maybe even world famous someday!
This is an incredible opportunity for an experienced café leader who wants to run their own place, take ownership of the guest experience and grow a thriving business with the systems, resources, mentorship and support of one of Colorado's most established independent restaurant groups.
