Job description

We've cultivated a spectacular cheese & charcuterie selection, but we remain committed to constant improvement. We're looking for a self-starting, detail-oriented, multi-tasker to cut and wrap cheese with care and accuracy, to merchandise effectively and to help educate our staff and our customers about the cheese and charcuterie we offer. Our Cheese Production Assistant will participate in our field trips to deepen their understanding of our vendors, and will be called upon to share their knowledge with our team.

We specifically seek out and develop relationships with producers who share our commitment to sustainability and community, and so we have a deep respect for the products we source and sell. The successful applicant will share our dedication to advancing the Good Food movement, and will work with a sense of purpose and urgency.

The position requires careful attention to detail. Passion for cheese is required and experience is strongly preferred.
