Joseph Mcclutchie

I enjoy creating genuine connections with people. Whether I'm on a construction site or serving coffee at the airport, I take pride in making people feel welcome, keeping calm under pressure, and delivering work to a high standard. I'm dependable, safety conscious, and someone who naturally steps up when the team needs me.

Front of House / Barista - Fush Tatau Airport, Christchurch - Christchurch

(2024-06)

At Fush Tatau Airport, I looked past the standard transactions to see the human element of travel—especially for those embarking on tough journeys or saying goodbye to loved ones. My greatest value was my ability to speak with warmth and ease customer stress. I turned my coffee station into a brief sanctuary where people could pause, feel heard, and find comfort during challenging times.
