The Shift Supervisor – Overview

Shift Supervisors report directly to the Café Manager. As the name implies, the Shift Supervisor is responsible for the management of shifts. In this regard, they have operations responsibilities, cash management responsibilities, opening and closing procedures. They also have supervisory responsibility of team members to insure that team members report to work, do their jobs according to operational standards, and are ready and able to work their shifts. They generally do not handle disciplinary matters with employees, but may handle “immediate to resolve” customer complaints.

Supervisors must be able to perform all functions within the café “front of house” and be able to cover for any absent employee. Supervisors are also responsible for stock and communicating with the Café Manager to ensure adequate supplies for the smooth and efficient operation of the Café.
