Wild Oats is a fast-paced café, bakery and deli that specializes in “real food made by real people.” Even with hundreds of products, we still make everything from-scratch. Whether working the opening, middle or closing shift, your priority is always to make a customer’s day – whether through serving a Texas-sized cupcake, comparing your hobbies with our awesome customers, or going the extra mile to make a customer feel special!
Your typical day might include:
- Making sandwiches the “Wild Oats way” (ask a current or former employee – they will tell you that there IS a right way to make a sandwich)
- Whipping up delicious coffee drinks and hand-pressed lemonades in our coffee area
- Working with the other members of the team to make sure every customer is getting the best experience possible
- Working on organization and cleaning projects to ensure that the day goes smoothly
- Helping to cut down our environmental impact by reusing, recycling and composting when possible
- Bagging fresh baked bread (it smells SO good!)
- Making tons of sandwiches to make our customers' days!
- Helping to suggest catering options to a customer who is planning an event
You enjoy:
- Being a minor celebrity in the community (once you start working here, you will realize that everyone recognizes an Oatie!)
- Working with a close-knit team of counter staff
- A fast-paced environment, where the day goes by really quickly
- Meeting people of all ages – toddlers, college students, retirees and everyone in between
- Eating, making and selling quality, from-scratch food
- Working for a place that you can be proud of, because we embrace social and environmental responsibility, all while serving REALLY delicious food
- Having hundreds of different options of food to choose from for your lunch break every day
You’re really good at:
- Meeting new people and engaging in a bit of small talk
- Communication
- Being proactive and staying busy
- Leaving the drama (if any) at home
- Being enthusiastic and optimistic
- Recognizing that working for a medium-sized family-owned business is the way to go
- Multitasking
- Taking feedback and knowing that it’s always better to have the opportunity to improve
- Staying positive and upbeat
