Powered by technology and a network of over 2,000 restaurants, Fooda feeds hungry people at work through our ongoing food programs located within companies and office buildings.

Part-time opportunity supporting a large Fooda client in the Memphis area!

We’re looking for someone who is hospitality-minded, hands-on, and takes pride in creating a great experience. This isn’t a desk-based event planning role—you’ll be onsite and actively involved in everything from setting up the space and supporting our restaurant partners to engaging with customers and cleaning up at the end of service.

The right person notices the details, jumps in without being asked, and understands that a clean, organized, elevated space is an important part of the customer experience.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Own the onsite execution of Fooda events, including setup, restaurant support, customer experience, breakdown, and cleanup

• Create a welcoming, organized, and polished environment and ensure the space looks great throughout service

• Welcome our local restaurant partners onsite and assist them with setup and operational needs

• Interact with customers throughout service, providing friendly, proactive hospitality and resolving questions or concerns in real time

• Keep service areas, equipment, and surrounding spaces clean and organized before, during, and after events

• Monitor restaurant setups to ensure Fooda standards for presentation, cleanliness, and overall experience are consistently met

• Problem-solve onsite issues such as late restaurant arrivals, missing or incorrect items, equipment needs, and other service challenges

• Learn and confidently use Fooda’s technology, systems, and standard operating procedures

• Communicate issues and updates to the Operations Manager and escalate when additional support is needed

• Jump in wherever needed to ensure every event runs smoothly and customers and restaurant partners have a great experience

This is an active, hands-on position. You should be comfortable being on your feet, setting up and breaking down service areas, moving supplies and equipment, cleaning, and pitching in wherever needed.

Schedule & Work Environment

This is a part-time position, with shifts scheduled between approximately 6:00 AM and 7:30 PM, Monday through Friday.

Monday–Friday availability is our priority, and candidates should have flexibility to work both daytime and evening shifts. There may also be opportunities for occasional weekend shifts.

The position is indoors at an active, fast-paced, construction-like site. You should be comfortable working in this type of environment while maintaining a clean, professional, and welcoming food service experience.

Who You Are

• You genuinely enjoy hospitality, customer service, and working with people

• You are friendly, professional, energetic, and comfortable interacting with customers and restaurant partners

• You are hands-on and willing to set up, clean, move supplies, break down events, and help wherever needed

• You have a strong eye for detail and take pride in making a space feel clean, organized, polished, and elevated

• You are proactive and notice what needs attention without always waiting to be asked

• You are dependable, punctual, and comfortable taking ownership of your work

• You are resourceful, remain composed under pressure, and enjoy solving problems in the moment

• You are organized, detail-oriented, and a strong communicator

• You are comfortable with technology and can quickly learn new systems and procedures

• You thrive in a fast-paced environment where priorities can change throughout the day

• Previous restaurant, catering, serving, banquet, event, hotel, food service, or hospitality experience is strongly preferred

What We’ll Hook You Up With

• Competitive pay: $18–$21/hour, based on experience

• Free food!

• Paid time off

• 401(k) Retirement Savings Plan with company match

• Long-term opportunities for advancement within Fooda
