Who are we?

Queensway Coffee Houses operate a combination of Drive Thru, Drive To, High Street and City Centre stores with a diverse and varied team of fantastic people.  A spirited bunch of high performers who live and breathe our company values of being kind, working together, challenging everything, and having fun.

We are so proud of who we are.  We are a family of challenge-seekers, travel-lovers, culture vultures, food fanatics, difference-makers, idea-generators, carers, and sharers.  We genuinely care for one another. We want everyone in our family to be happy and to succeed, so we keep an eye out for each other, inspire each other, and celebrate with each other. 

The Role

We are looking to build a pool of future Store Managers to lead our Starbucks stores.  We are growing our estate and are looking to interview in early 2021 candidates to join the Queensway family as stores are built within our estate.

We are looking to recruit the very best candidates for our vacancies in the following areas:

  • Oxfordshire
