About Starbucks Coffee Company

Starbucks Coffee Company is the world's premier coffeehouse chain, connecting people through the shared love of coffee. With thousands of stores across the globe, Starbucks offers more than just beverages—it's a community hub where baristas craft handcrafted drinks and create memorable experiences. Founded in 1971 in Seattle, Washington, Starbucks has grown into a global icon, committed to ethically sourcing premium coffee beans, fostering sustainable practices, and empowering its partners (that's what we call our employees). In Overland Park, Kansas, our store at 127th & Antioch (#13646) embodies this mission, serving the local community with passion and excellence.

Role Overview

As a Shift Supervisor at Starbucks Coffee Company in Overland Park, Kansas, you'll step into a leadership role that blends customer service, team coordination, and operational excellence. This position is perfect for motivated individuals with retail experience who thrive in fast-paced environments. You'll support the store manager by directing shifts, ensuring top-tier service, and upholding Starbucks' high standards for food and beverage quality. Flexible scheduling means you'll work early mornings, evenings, weekends, nights, and holidays, making it ideal for those seeking dynamic full-time opportunities in the coffee industry.

Why This Role Stands Out

Shift Supervisors aren't just managers—they're coaches who inspire baristas to deliver the 'Starbucks Experience.' With a focus on safety, security, and customer satisfaction, you'll play a key part in creating welcoming spaces where connections happen over every cup.

• Prepare and coach the preparation of food and beverages to standard recipes or customized orders, including adjustments for temperature, ingredients, or substitutions.
• Delegate tasks to other employees and coordinate the work of two or more team members, directing their efforts effectively.

Daily Impact

From opening the store with precision to closing with a spotless environment, your leadership ensures every shift exceeds expectations, fostering a positive atmosphere for customers and partners alike.
