Training Lead – Coffee/F&B (m/f/d)
Our mission: LAP is a grab-and-go coffee chain operation in micro size hubs - offering products at a price point customers can afford every day, multiple times a day. In short, we are on a mission to make the specialty coffee experience more accessible, digital, and convenient.
In a world where services continue to move more towards digitalization, LAP (Life Among People) is bringing back the human touch paired with the personalisation and convenience that modern consumers have gotten used to.
Centered around emotion - the smell of a morning coffee, the warmth of a coffee cup, the social interaction and conversations shared over a coffee, the smile of the barista - we’re making high-quality coffee radically more accessible.
