Alterra Coffee Roasters Career Opportunities

It all started with three friends who required something that was hard to come by in 1993 – something strong and full of flavor – to keep them well fueled for long nights and hard work. These guys were in need of some real quality coffee, and in order to get it they decided to do it themselves.

And so ALTERRA was born. Through hard work, dedication and a continual commitment to strive for the best, ALTERRA gives you great quality coffee with distinctive big flavor.

ALTERRA gives you good quality, hard working coffee that you feel good about drinking – hardworking coffees that have been created with a genuine passion and obsession for quality and originality.

At ALTERRA we believe in connecting people who love good quality coffee. We are committed to promoting strong local communities, forging quality relationships with our suppliers and showing true respect to our environment.

When a decent cup of coffee is hard to come by, interesting things can happen. Or at least they did back in Milwaukee in 1993, when three friends were working nights while keeping their daytime businesses afloat. They required good strong coffee, and not just any coffee. What they were after was something full of flavor to keep them well fueled for long nights and hard work. In order to get it - they decided that they had to roast their own - and ALTERRA™ was born!

At ALTERRA we don’t just care about great coffee, we are also committed to minimizing the environmental impact of our operations. We are aware of the impact we have on the environment and this awareness guides many of our decisions.

We’re committed to sourcing our coffee sustainably and ensure we take a responsible approach to both people and environment at origin.
