Kitchen jobs at Mooba Subiaco

We're recruiting at least two new staff members for the kitchen at Mooba in Subiaco.

Full time Head Cook

You'll work Monday - Friday from early morning till mid afternoon.  You'll need to be available some weekends and evenings to cover shifts and work at occasional events

You'll be entirely responsible for the kitchen at the Subiaco store, which includes short order breakfast cooking, writing all menus, sourcing, costing & ordering ingredients. You will report directly into Mooba's co-owners, and will work with them to manage the part time cook(s)

You must have at least one year of cooking experience

 

Part time Cook

You'll work at the weekend, either one of both days, depending on your availability. It would be an added bonus if you're available occasionally during the week to help out, but not a necessity

While you're working, you will be responsible for the smooth running of the kitchen, from cooking all short order breakfasts, to making sure we have enough stock for the next day

You will report into the Head Cook, and will work with them to develop new seasonal menu items, and any other support necessary

You must have at least six months of cooking experience

 

Applicants for both jobs must:

Have a genuine love of food, and be keen to develop your particular passion. Being a small cafe we are very flexible, so there is plenty of room for you to experiment

Have a good knowledge of local and seasonal food

Be able to work as part of a diverse group of young people

 

Applicants for both jobs will be asked to perform specific tasks during a trial, including:

Poach two eggs on toast

Bake a batch of banana bread, following our recipe

Make a batch of short crust pastry

Bake a cake (or similar) of your choosing

 

If you are interested, please email Hannah (moobacoffee@gmail.com) with a copy of your CV.

1000 followers competition: The rules

When we reach 1000 followers on Twitter, we're going to go a bit nuts.  Not so much "EVERYTHING MUST GO!" nuts, but still.  Here's what we're offering the winner:

1. The winner will be crowned the King or Queen of Mooba.  You'll get a crown, your photo up in the cafe, and we'll bow every time you come in.

2. You'll get free coffee for an entire month.  That's one a day, for 31 days.

3. You'll also get to choose three of your favourite dishes to go on our menu.  We'll name them after you, and give you full credit on Twitter, Facebook etc.  How long we keep them on the menu depends on how well they sell, so choose carefully.

4. For a whole month, we'll make you feel like the world revolves around you.  We're not sure how we're going to measure this, but we're going to try.

OK, so down to the nitty-gritty.  Here are the rules:

1. You must be following us on Twitter to be eligible to win

2. A date will be picked at random when we reach 1000 followers, at a specified time.  If that date is your birthday, you'll need to @reply as quickly as possible.  The first person with that birthday to reply, wins the whole prize.

3. If no one replies within the specified time, we'll pick another date, and therefore another winner

4. You must be able to pick up your free coffees from Mooba Subiaco or Wembley.  If you live in a different state/country, we can give you all the other bits of the prize, just not the coffee part.  You won't be able to nominate someone else to claim the free coffee, so if you'd prefer we can just pick another winner

5. You must be a real person in order to win.  You can't be a business/company or a bot.  To prove it's really your birthday, we'll ask to see some proof when you first come in

Good luck everyone!

A little help with our app

Disclaimer: Our app probably won't look anything like this

 

As many of you will know, we're launching a smartphone app very soon.  We've done one trial (that went very well), and now we'd like to do another one.  If you're up for it, we'd love your help.  Here's the particulars:

1. The trial will take place between 11am - 2pm on Thursday 31st March.  If you're free to come into Mooba Subiaco for 15 minutes during those times, please email moobacoffee@gmail.com

2. We've got limited spots, so we'll let you know if you've made it in time, give you instructions on how to download the app, and what you need to do next

3. On Thursday, you'll need to place an order for a coffee, and then come to Mooba to pick it up.  We'll shout you the coffee, and throw in a muffin or slice for good measure

4. While you're sipping your extra hot decaf soy cappuccino we'd like you to take 5 minutes to tell Sam (the clever chap what wrote the app), your thoughts.  And don't hold back, we want it to be perfect

5. After that you're free to go.  If you've got time to kill, you could wander over to 2XU's sale, or alternatively stand in the posh IGA for half an hour Hoovering up cake samples.

As Becky would say, sweet deal yo.
