The Company: Moustache Coffee Club is a specialty coffee subscription company. We want everyone to enjoy incredible coffee every time they brew, so we focus on shipping high-quality coffees to our members' homes. We try to provide top-quality coffee without the snobby barista attitude - and a big part of that is making sure our beans are packed and shipped to a high-quality standard. The Role: We're looking for help on our production team. This means preparing coffee bags, boxes, and packaging materials ahead of roast day - and then filling those bags, packing up those boxes, and getting them ready to ship once the coffee's roasted. It's repetitive, process-driven work - great for listening to music or podcasts. We'll also send you home with some free coffee each week! We prepare packaging materials Sunday afternoons, and pack the coffee on Monday mornings. These are the only days that we have access to the shared roasting facility we use, so interested applicants must be available Sundays 4:00p-8:30p & Mondays 7:30a-3:30p. Some helpful traits include: Attention to detail Promptness Initiative Organization Interest in specialty coffee The Location: Production takes place in a shared roasting space in Southwest Berkeley. You will be working with other MCC staff on-site, as well as other coffee professionals using the shared space. The Moustache Coffee Club was founded in 2013 after Sean spent an entire morning going from coffee shop to coffee shop in Los Angeles, trying to find a bag of high-quality beans that had been roasted in the last week. After visiting 4 different coffee shops in a city renowned for its specialty coffee roasters and failing to find fresh-roasted coffee, he decided that there needed to be an easier way to get high-quality coffee at home. A few weeks later, he was putting together a website to share fresh coffee with other coffee fans, and the rest is history. Today, Moustache Coffee Club has grown into the premier destination for premium, single-origin coffee subscriptions, including a limited tasting series for rare and award-winning beans. New features like flexible plans, one-off ordering, and an artificial intelligence to help personalize selections for each member have turned a simple coffee of the month club into an elevated experience in specialty coffee. Coffee lovers in over 60 countries have turned to MCC for freshly roasted coffee delivery to their homes and offices, and the club continues to grow every day.
