Improvements and changes to People Profiles
We've made improvements and changes to People Profiles on United Baristas.
New features and improvements
- Showcase your work and achievements with Experiences
- Communicate your openness to a new coffee job
- Add profile picture and header image
Experiences
You can now add key experiences from your coffee career. Communicate periods of employment, achievements and awards. Think of it as a potted version of your CV. Most people looking for work should add 2 to 5 experiences.
Open to work?
You can now display your openness to a new job. Opt for:
- Looking for my next job, or
- Open to opportunities
If you select either of these options, the enquiry form is displayed on your profile so companies can contact you without you having to share your email, phone or socials.
Profile pictures
Add a profile picture and header to your profile to make it your own.
Expiry & renewal
To keep United Baristas tidy, you'll need to update your profile at least every 18 months otherwise it'll be unpublished and subsequently deleted several weeks later.
Updated People Profiles
We are implementing new profiles for individuals on United Baristas. • New people category: https://services.unitedbaristas.com/service/directory/people/ • New design and functions are being introduced You can use currently available functions while we do this work and we'll be updating relevant people when this feature is implemented so you can finish updating your profile and benefit from the new functions. 💪

Next steps
These updates are all compatible with forthcoming changes to better integrate United Baristas services. This is a multi-step project for us and updates will be incrementally rolled out into early 2025.
United Baristas Services – bringing everything together [Project Ensemble]
Work has started this autumn on Project Ensemble, our effort to bring together all our services into one place. It's going to be a massive, multi-stage project that will take much of 2024 as we integrate jobs, new and used equipment, companies and profiles as well as commercial sales. The first big step was incorporating Equipment into Market so that it would integrate with Marketplace and Company Profiles. Many of you are already finding this useful, so we are embarking on the next step. We are updating you now so can appreciate the bigger picture as we make the next updates. Together, they'll build the future of United Baristas. Specific updates to follow as changes are made. And if you have any suggestions drop us a line. Thanks for your ongoing support and all the best for the year ahead.
