WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR

• You are articulate. You have strong written, verbal and interpersonal skills. Even better, you practice empathy in all spheres.
• You understand the importance of details. You don’t sweat the small stuff and thrive in a fast-paced and ever-changing environment, yet you have a keen ability to recognize nuance.
• You are team-oriented. You understand the importance of a positive attitude, you are always seeking personal and professional growth and you are always there to lend a hand.

WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT

• $21.16/hour
• An inclusive, fun workplace filled with fantastic colleagues. We’re a certified B-Corporation and our team is passionate about making a positive difference (and also about food!)
• The ability to work from home or from our HQ located in beautiful East Vancouver
• Comprehensive health benefits (including medical, dental, vision and life-insurance) after 90 days of successful employment.
• Food Perks!
  Please note that the posted salary range for this role may vary based on qualifications, prior experience, or seniority. We are always looking for talented people to join our network, and research shows that while men apply to jobs when they meet an average of 60% of the criteria, women and other marginalized folks tend to only apply when they check every box. So if you think you have what it takes but don’t necessarily meet every single point on the job description, or if your desired compensation isn’t reflected in this posting, please still get in touch. We’d love to have a chat and see if you could be a great fit.
