-Excitement about food and sharing that with customers during deliveries.
-Ability to wield a kitchen knife and chop vegetables like it’s nobody’s business.
-Ability to commit to working with SoupCycle for one year at minimum.
-Other business skills are a major plus including sales and kitchen experience.
-Excitement to work with a small, local business.

1) 12-16 hours/week split Sundays-Wednesdays, with part of your time out on the bike and part in the kitchen. This position starts the end of May.

Approximate hours:
Every other Sunday: 12pm-4pm

Tuesdays: 8:30am-12:30pm
Wednesdays: 8:30am-12:30pm
