About Us
Shiny Storm is a small family-owned business on the Sunshine Coast, known for our unique range of crystals and jewellery. Alongside our permanent kiosk at Sunshine Plaza, our Noosa Junction boutique, and regular market stalls, we’ve built a reputation for creating welcoming spaces that inspire connection, mindfulness, and joy.
We are currently renovating our flagship crystal shop in Noosa and, as part of this exciting project, we are opening a tiny coffee shop inside the store. The café will serve specialty coffee sourced from local roasters who share our values of quality and sustainability. Our aim is to create a serene and uplifting atmosphere where customers can enjoy delicious coffee, healthy treats, and the calming presence of crystals all in one space.
The café is scheduled to open in mid-October, approximately three weeks from now, making this a unique opportunity for the right candidate to join us from the very beginning and help bring this concept to life.
