About Flynn's Delicatessen
Flynn's is a growing, modern deli with a passion for high-quality food and a mission to reconnect people with eating sustainably, seasonally, and creatively. As part of a small team, you'll wear many hats, learning about everything from food preparation and customer service to the art of charcuterie and cheese mongering. This is more than just a job—it's an opportunity to grow with a business that values its people as much as its products.
Your Role
As a Deli Clerk, you'll be the face of Flynn's, providing excellent service to our customers while ensuring the smooth operation of the deli counter. From recommending the perfect cheese pairing to preparing fresh sandwiches, your day will be varied and engaging.
Key Responsibilities:
* Serve and advise customers on our range of high-quality meats, cheeses, and deli products.
* Prepare fresh deli items, such as sandwiches, salads, and charcuterie boards.
* Operate slicing machines and other deli equipment (full training provided).
* Maintain a clean and organised workspace, adhering to food safety standards.
* Assist with stocking shelves, inventory management, and product displays.
* Support the team with general tasks—because at Flynn's, we all pitch in to get the job done.
What We Offer
At Flynn's, we believe in looking after our team as well as we look after our customers. Here's what you'll enjoy:
* 6 weeks of annual leave per year (or pro-rata for part-time staff).
* Your birthday off every year, fully paid.
* Free lunch every shift, with options from our café or deli menu.
* Discounts on all deli products, so you can take home your favourites.
* Keep 100% of your tips.
* Free annual eye test.
* Opportunities to learn and grow, including training in charcuterie, cheese mongering, and food preparation.
* Profit-sharing scheme—as Flynn's grows, so do your rewards.
* Wellness benefits, including free tea and coffee throughout the day and access to a quiet break area.
* Career progression opportunities, including management and supervisor opportunities or transitioning into a business support, logistics or administration role.
What We're Looking For
We value personality and passion over experience. If you're friendly, hard-working, and eager to learn, you'll fit right in. Ideally, you'll also bring:
* Previous experience in kitchens, restaurants, coffee shops, delicatessens or bakeries (3 years minimum)- either in a serving or a catering role.
* A love of food and an interest in learning about seasonal and sustainable eating.
* Great communication skills and a knack for making customers feel welcome.
* Attention to detail, especially when it comes to food preparation and presentation.
* A willingness to roll up your sleeves and help wherever needed.
