Who we are
Signpost International works to eradicate poverty and suffering in all forms. We partner with local organisations and communities globally to deliver sustainable, community-led programmes based on expressed needs, regardless of race or religion. Our work focuses on four key areas: food security, sustainable livelihoods, Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH), and global citizenship.
In Dundee, we tackle food waste and insecurity by turning surplus food into meals—over 44,000 since 2021—distributed via foodbanks and larders. We run growing and cooking workshops to help children and community groups build skills and confidence, and provide food and activities during school holidays. We are also finalising our Centre for Sustainable Learning in Dundee to educate and inspire future generations to tackle poverty, challenge injustice, and protect the environment.
The role
This is an exciting new initiative creating real opportunities for young people in Dundee. The project offers a chance to learn and develop food and hospitality skills in a real-life café setting, while contributing to a more sustainable and connected community.
At The Roundhouse, we take surplus food from local farms, allotments, and supermarkets to create community meals that go back into the community through local larders and food banks. We are committed to working with the community to build a sustainable, inclusive, and affordable café that not only supports young people seeking alternative career pathways but also helps reduce food waste and strengthens local engagement.
We’re looking for a creative, organised, and community-minded Café Supervisor and hospitality trainer to lead our community café and support local teens in developing real-world hospitality skills. This unique role combines hands-on café management with youth mentoring and training.
You’ll oversee the day-to-day running of the café, work alongside young people as they gain experience in customer service, food preparation, and teamwork, and help shape a supportive learning environment that builds confidence and employability. You’ll be an enthusiastic and driven individual who enjoys working with young people and sharing your passion for food and hospitality. You’ll be organised, adaptable, and able to balance the dual responsibilities of running a café and supporting a learning environment.
