New Vision Bradford is a partnership between the Bridge Project, Project 6 and Waythrough. Under this umbrella, the partnership delivers an adult drug and alcohol service for the Bradford and Craven District, aiming to help people tackle and reduce risk taking behaviours through dedicated prevention, intervention, and support.

We are looking to recruit a Coffee Shop Coordinator at Flourish Coffee Shop, which opened in 2025, which creates a friendly space where customers enjoy a warm, welcoming experience. The Coffee Shop is open to the public and members between 9.30 am – 3.00 pm Monday to Friday, selling beverages, including barista coffee, a range of teas and soft drinks along with a small food offer. On the upper floors there is a member only area, which offers recovery and aftercare groups and activities for any members of Flourish Recovery Aftercare. This role will interface between community and the recovery community, with an understanding of the barriers facing individuals with lived experience.

The overarching strategic ambition for Flourish Coffee Shop is where both recovery and the wider community can come together and thrive. To realise this vision, you will play a pivotal role in steering a comprehensive marketing and hospitality campaign, aimed at increasing footfall and supporting the achievement of our strategic objectives.

Central to this campaign will be the cultivation of strong relationships with community partners. You will be responsible for building and maintaining these connections, thereby enhancing available resources and expanding the Coffee Shop’s reach within the local area.

In the long term, as part of the continued development of Flourish Coffee Shop, there will be a focus on extending the current service offer to include sober nights and weekend events. These initiatives are designed to attract a broader audience and further integrating recovery-focused activities into the community setting. The post holder is expected to be flexible with regards to working hours and may be required to work occasional weekends/evenings for events.

You will be an integral member of the team driving these developments, working closely with the leadership team at Bridge, the Team Leader, relevant staff, and members of Flourish. Together, the team will collaborate to ensure that the strategic ambitions of the Coffee Shop are realised, fostering an inclusive and supportive environment for all.

Alongside this, you will be responsible for implementing and maintaining the highest standard of food hygiene, service offer, overseeing stock sourcing, ordering, stock control and cash handling. This role will work with volunteers and members of Flourish, leading on all aspects of the day-day running of this small local Coffee Shop, creating a warm and inviting space to visit.

This is an exciting opportunity where you will be interfacing with staff, volunteers, the public and members of the recovery and aftercare community. As such this post would be ideally suited to someone with knowledge of the recovery community and be aligned to the strategic ambitions for the site. We are looking for someone who has Food Hygiene Level 2, with a minimum of 2 years’ experience of working in catering or the hospitality industry. The ability to build positive relationships and excellent interpersonal skills is important.

As well as a rewarding career, you’ll enjoy a benefits package designed to help you thrive:

  • Competitive salary that reflects your skills and contribution
  • 32 days of annual leave to rest, recharge, and enjoy life outside work
  • 4% employer pension contribution to support your long‑term financial security
  • A dedicated Learning & Development programme to help you grow and progress
  • 24/7 Employee Assistance Programme offering confidential advice whenever you need it
  • Death‑in‑service benefit worth three times your salary for added peace of mind
  • Refer‑a‑friend bonus of £500 when you help us bring great people on board
  • Two hours of monthly wellbeing time to pause, connect, and reset with your team
  • A programme of mindfulness activities to boost focus on overall wellbeing

Joining The Bridge Project means becoming part of a team that values you, your wellbeing, your growth, and your future. The Bridge Project is proud to be a Mindful Employer, championing a workplace where wellbeing truly matters.
