Now Hiring: Beverage Prep & Operations Coordinator

Bring creativity. Lead with independence. Batch brilliance behind the scenes.

Pay: $22/hr base + ~$4.75–$6/hr in tips

Schedule: Full-time | Mon, Tues, Thurs, Fri, Sat (9AM–5PM)

Benefits: Full health package + overtime potential (up to 5 hrs/week)

Location: St. Louis, MO

We’re looking for an independent, detail-driven team member to take ownership of a behind-the-scenes kitchen operation supporting a vibrant beverage program. This position is perfect for someone who thrives working solo, enjoys crafting high-quality drink components, and values structure with a creative twist. If you’ve ever worked in coffee, bartending, or quick-service leadership—and love working clean and organized—this might be your dream daytime gig.

What You’ll Be Doing:

• Batch unique frozen and hot beverages, garnishes, and drink components with precision
• Maintain food safety practices and uphold exceptional cleanliness standards
• Place product orders, manage inventory, and input vendor invoices
• Run the daily kitchen setup and breakdown entirely on your own
• Collaborate on seasonal and R&D projects for new menu items
• Help streamline processes and reduce waste with your sharp operational eye

What You Bring to the Table:

• Strong background in barista, bartender, or QSR-style beverage prep
• Comfort working independently and staying organized
• Experience with inventory systems and vendor communication
• A creative spark—we value fresh ideas and hands-on problem solving
• Must be 21+ with or willing to obtain ServSafe/SMART certification
• Able to lift up to 150 lbs and work on your feet throughout the shift

Why This Role is Different:

This is a full-time position, but you won’t be working late nights or dealing with grease, fryers, or line cooking. You’ll own the kitchen in a structured, focused, and self-managed environment—bringing handcrafted excellence to every batch, every time.

Growth is on the table. We’re building something special and want curious, capable people to grow with us.

Think you're the one behind the next great drink? Apply today to make your mark in a creative, independent role like no other.
