Manage daily operations for the Seattle market, train restaurants, support clients, conduct audits, and ensure a smooth lunch experience.
Who We Are:
Our story began in 2011 when a group of office workers at a major logistics company in Chicago had a lunch problem. Nearby options were limited and the team was spending too much time and money traveling to their favorite restaurants. They had an idea: bring Chicago’s local restaurant culture inside the office to sell food. It was an immediate hit. When they discovered people from other companies sneaking into their office, they knew they were on to something and Fooda was born.
Fooda pioneered the concept of rotating popup restaurants inside offices. Today, we operate in 45+ US cities with over 100 million meals served and continue to grow rapidly. Powered by technology and a network of 1500+ restaurants, we feed hungry people at work through a platform of innovative food programs located within companies, office buildings, hospitals, schools, distribution centers, and more. At Fooda, we believe a workplace food program should be something employees love and look forward to every day.
Position Overview:
As an Operations Account Executive you will play a crucial role in helping manage daily operations for the Seattle market. Your “North Star” is ensuring that we provide a consistently first-rate lunch experience for our clients and their employees. You will work closely with the Senior Operations Manager to on-board and train new restaurants, handle inbound requests from clients, and provide on-site support. This role requires ~40% local travel within the Seattle area.
