Store Manager - Starbucks St Lukes

“With every cup, with every conversation, with every community - we nurture the limitless possibilities of human connection” From simple beginnings 52 years ago with one store in Seattle, Starbucks is now a global brand across more than 50 countries and has been in New Zealand for 25 years with 35 stores around the country. At Starbucks, it is all about connection and family! Starbucks New Zealand is owned and operated by a New Zealand business. Tahua Partners provides unique employment opportunities across multiple brands (Burger King, Popeye’s, Number One Shoes, and Hannah’s), so you are part of a much larger family. People are at the heart of who we are, and they represent one of our pillars here at Starbucks. We believe that working together with each other, our customers, and our community makes a positive impact – that is what defines family at Starbucks. Starbucks creates that warm and welcoming environment that makes you want to keep coming back. It is a place where you meet lifelong friends and get to be a part of something bigger than coffee.
