‍Department: Rx - Community Access

‍Classification: Full-Time Salaried

Please note: As we prepare for a busy market season, we are ideally looking to have someone on board by early May. Priority application deadline is April 10.

Job Description

We’re seeking a full-time Market Operations Coordinator to coordinate and execute the day-to-day operations of our mobile and pop-up farmers markets, expanding access to fresh, affordable, local food in community-based settings.

This role provides hands-on coordination of hourly market staff, manages on-site logistics, and ensures consistent, reliable execution of weekly markets at partner sites such as nonprofits, schools, transit centers, and churches. The Market Operations Coordinator serves as the operational bridge between hourly staff and program leadership, with responsibility for scheduling, supplies management, equipment oversight, and field-based problem-solving.

You’ll thrive in this role if you enjoy hands-on operational work, are organized and dependable, feel comfortable working independently, and are motivated by supporting local food access in practical, community-centered ways. We are a small, collaborative team that works cross functionally and this position may support other areas of the organization as needed. This is a strong opportunity for someone looking to grow supervisory skills while playing a key role in day-to-day operations.

This position is primarily based out of our office space at our West Atlanta warehouse, which serves as the operational hub for our market programs.

• Support and troubleshoot market technology, including POS systems, mobile hotspots, and related tools
• Assist with outreach, site coordination, and engagement efforts as directed
• Adapt to program needs, including weekday coverage, occasional weekends, and multi-market days
• Provide administrative and operational support in other areas of the organization as needed

Role Requirements

• Experience supervising shift-based teams, including scheduling and training staff
• Strong written and verbal communication skills
• Comfortable learning and using technology (POS systems, Google Workspace, spreadsheets, Canva, etc.)
• Ability to work independently in community-based environments
• Valid driver’s license and ability to be insured and drive company vehicles
• Organized, dependable, and able to lift 50+ lbs and work on your feet
• Mission-driven, adaptable, and collaborative
• Fully vaccinated against COVID-19 (or valid medical waiver)and up to date on seasonal flu vaccine
• Able to pass a criminal background check (required for community-based sites, including schools and early learning spaces)

Preferred Skills and Qualifications

• Experience in food service, agriculture, farmers markets, or similar operational environments
• Knowledge of inventory systems, supply ordering, food safety standards, and workflow processes
• Experience working in settings with primarily part-time or hourly staff and maintaining consistent week-to-week operations
• Forklift certification
• Interest in food access, community programs, sustainability, or food systems work

Compensation & Benefits

• $45,000 - $52,000
• 100% employer-covered benefits (medical, vision, dental)
• 401k with employer match
• Generous PTO and paid holidays off
• And more!
