ABOUT HAKKŌ
Hakkō is Aarhus's first matcha specialty café, where Japanese craft meets Scandinavian restraint. We work exclusively with our own first harvest matcha, treating it with the same seriousness as great coffee or wine. Our in-house sourdough bakery backs that up.

We're looking for baristas with heart and the confidence to work independently. At Hakkō, the role goes beyond the bar, every interaction is part of how a guest experiences the space, from their first order to their last sip. Care, consistency, and awareness matter at every step. We want people who move well at pace, take pride in what they serve, and can talk about first harvest matcha and freshly baked sourdough like they mean it, because they do.

JOB DESCRIPTION
Prepare our own first harvest matcha and specialty espresso with precision and consistency. Execute beautiful latte art as a matter of standard, not exception. Build deep product knowledge and share it naturally with guests. Serve food from our own kitchen, keep the counter neat, and keep the cool during a rush.


About You

– Minimum 1.5 years of barista experience
- Strong latte art skills and a genuine interest in developing them
– You stay cool when things get busy, quick without cutting corners
– You’re positive, present, and know how to make guests feel seen.
- You love to share and talk about our specialty beans and special matcha with deep knowhow
– You're available for a mix of weekday and weekend shifts: including opens and closes.
- You know how to keep the space clean and always tidy
– You might be a student, on a gap year, or somewhere in between, but you take your work seriously and want to be part of something unique and with quality in focus.

The Role

• Pull precise espresso and dial in the machine daily

• Pour latte art that's worth looking at — every time

• Prepare and serve our first harvest matcha with care and consistency across every drink

• Share your knowledge of what's in the cup — sourcing, preparation, why it matters — naturally and without a script

• Keep the counter and every station clean, calm, and considered at all times

• Maintain the presentation of baked goods throughout the day

• Prepare food dishes & prep for the next days

• Manage stock and help ensuring nothing runs out

• Stay composed during busy service, balancing pace with precision

What You Get

– ATTENTION: Barista experience is a must as you get training in our workflow, matcha, products, the works of a start-up
– Teammates who are kind, curious, and not afraid of a rush
– A space where quality matters and good vibes aren’t optional
– A fast-paced, service-driven matcha bar rooted in craft and community.
- We offer a self-led work environment with real responsibility and room to grow.
- Join an ambitious, passionate team where you’ll have the space to improve, contribute, and take ownership.
