Coffee Roasters Co-Op is committed to building a workplace grounded in justice, dignity, and shared ownership. As a worker-owned co-operative, we believe work is not just about productivity, but about shared responsibility, meaningful participation, and creating the conditions that allow people to thrive.
We recognize that hiring processes and workplaces are shaped by systems that have not served everyone equally. We are actively working to challenge those systems by building practices that are transparent, accountable, and rooted in care, with attention to who has historically been excluded and how we create space for diverse lived experiences, skills, and pathways.
We strongly encourage applications from people who identify as 2SLGBTQ+, Black, Indigenous, African Nova Scotian, racialized persons, women, newcomers to Canada, and people with disabilities. If you do not meet every listed requirement but feel aligned with the values and responsibilities of this role, we still want to hear from you.
Accessibility matters to us. Accommodations are available throughout the application and interview process, and you are welcome to let us know what supports would help you participate fully.
To support a hiring process that reflects these commitments, Just Us! Coffee Roasters Co-Op has partnered with Placemaking 4G (P4G). Together, we are working to ensure this search is conducted with clarity, fairness, and respect for people's time, experiences, and humanity.
Roasted with Purpose, Rooted in Justice
In 1993, while visiting his sister in Ethiopia, Jeff Moore learned to roast coffee on a stovetop and witnessed its cultural significance to Ethiopians. He discovered how exceptionally well-appreciated fresh-roasted coffee could be. A seed was planted, and he returned to Canada focused on one life-changing question: How could he start a coffee business that would do justice to the coffee, the farmers, and the planet? The answers weren't simple, but the vision was clear.
By 1995, Jeff and his wife, Deb, risked it all, putting their home on the line to purchase their first $70,000 shipment of fair trade organic coffee from the Union de la Selva coffee co-op in Chiapas, Mexico. Together with three partners, they launched Just Us! Coffee Roasters Co-operative in their home in New Minas, Nova Scotia.
Building direct relationships with coffee co-ops has been essential from the beginning. One of our earliest and longest partnerships is with Comité Campesino del Altiplano (CCDA), a cooperative of Guatemalan farmers rebuilding their lives after years of civil war.
“For 30 years now, these deep relationships have defined who we are.”
Environmental Sustainability
Sustainability has been at the core of Just Us! since the beginning. By supporting regenerative organic agriculture and paying fair prices for ingredients, we share responsibility with small-scale farmers in the Global South, enabling them to care for their families, nurture their communities, and steward the lands that sustain them.
For over a decade, we've offset our electricity usage through Bullfrog Power, ensuring every kilowatt we use is replenished with renewable energy in Atlantic Canada's power grid. As Canada's first Fair Trade Organic coffee roaster, we continue to lead with justice, integrity, and solidarity, ensuring our work benefits both people and the planet.
Coffee the Co-op Way
Since 1995, Just Us! has proudly operated as a 100% Canadian worker-owned co-op, inspired by the producer co-ops we partner with around the world. Our democratic model means that everyone who works with us, from baristas to administrators, can become a member-owner, shaping our decisions and ensuring we remain committed to the community, the land, and our purposeful work. Together, we've built a platform for positive change - one that advances social and environmental justice, generates income for our workers, and stays true to our cooperative roots.
“At Just Us!, we believe equity and recognition must be backed by action. That's why our highest-paid employee earns no more than three times our lowest-paid employee—and every team member has the opportunity for employee ownership.”
