Café Ambassador - Hollywood

Capital One Capital One · Banking · Los Angeles, CA

This role is for a Café Ambassador at Capital One in Hollywood, Los Angeles. The primary responsibilities involve engaging with customers, guiding them through digital banking tools and services, and acting as a brand advocate. The role emphasizes community building, customer experience, and problem-solving within a regulated environment, rather than traditional sales. It requires a high school diploma and at least one year of retail, sales, or customer service experience.

What you'd actually do

  1. Be a Natural Connector: Proactively engage with guests in a high-energy environment that serves as both a community space and a local coffee shop. (Note: You are a banking guide, not a barista—you won’t be serving coffee!)
  2. Serve as a Brand Advocate: You’ll share the value of Capital One’s products and services through genuine conversation rather than transactions. Because we focus on the guest experience, this role is free from traditional sales goals or high-pressure tactics. Your success is measured by the quality of the connection, not a quota.
  3. Simplify the Complex: Guide customers through our digital ecosystem, helping them master mobile tools and troubleshooting tech challenges with ease.
  4. Facilitate Purposeful Impact: Host and support local events that promote financial health. You’ll act as a brand steward, working within the framework of Capital One’s established programs and strategic community partnerships to ensure our impact is professional, focused, and effective.
  5. Advocate & Problem-Solve: You’ll advocate for our customers, problem solve, and own issue resolution in alignment with compliance and regulatory requirements. Handling complaints and/or escalated situations is very important, and de-escalation may be a complex part of your role supporting our customers—we’ll ensure you’re supported with the tools, resources, and experience to ensure you’re up for the challenge!
