UK – Barista Jobs

Experienced Barista? We have jobs for you
6 months - forever

Making that perfect cup of coffee is a skill not many of us can master – so we turn to our godlike baristas day in and day out. The Brits love their coffee (and tea!) as much as most countries and we have a great network of cafes, restaurants and hotels with UK barista jobs. 

Live and work in the UK, making the most of your hospitality experience. You’ll be able to enjoy the sights and sounds of British life, travelling on your days off, with very affordable live-in accommodation. 

Everything sorted – before you leave

When arranging your job with UK Pub Co. you’ll arrive in the UK with everything sorted. A job, accommodation as well as support for setting up a bank account and travel arrangements. With less to worry about you can start earning and travelling straight away. 

Some of our Speciality Coffee shop partners will refund your flight tickets (up to £750) if staying on for a full 12 months. We work with some of the best coffee shops in London, at the forefront of the worlds most vibrant coffee scene. You will have the opportunity to experience global coffee shows and events,  workshops, cupping and farm visits. Take your coffee game beyond Aussie shores and make it world class!

Earn more, worry less

The best part about our live-in barista jobs is that you’ll save money on rent that you can spend to travel the UK and Europe. From as low as £70 per week you can enjoy a fully furnished room with access to everything you need. Plus, there’s no bonds or upfront costs.

Hamish Whyte
My girlfriend and I were a bit worried about making the big move to the UK. Unsure about accommodation and job prospects and what we would do when we got to the UK. We decided to go with the UK Pub Co to help us with the move and have never regretted it. From the initial phone call the service has been amazing. We had a job and accommodation sorted within a week of applying. Put our minds at ease. After being at our little country pub for 8 months we are again using the Pub Co for another job. Cannot recommend the service enough.
