• Drive materials between San Francisco, East Bay, and San Jose when needed 

Keep the Commercial Engine Running 

• Coordinate meetings and follow-ups 
• Support sales operations including customer communications, tracking 
• Maintain organized systems for opportunities, materials, and information 
• Support the commercial leadership with calendar management and scheduling, occasional travel scheduling 

Who Thrives Here 

You might be a great fit if you: 

• Have event management and/or executive assistance experience (5+ years preferred)
• Enjoy both planning and hands-on execution 
• Take pride in details others miss 
• Have a creative eye for all things hospitality 
• Naturally bring structure to fast-moving environments 
• Communicate clearly and follow through reliably 
• Have direct experience in food / hospitality 
• Care about sustainability and mission-driven work 

What We Value 

• Ownership over rigid job boundaries 
• Thoughtfulness and kindness in how we work together 
• Craft and quality in execution 
• Clear communication and reliability 
• Building something meaningful with a small, committed team 

Practical Details 

• Bay Area–based role, preferred around San Francisco, CA 
• Hybrid role: Work is remote most days, with one required weekly in-office collaboration day at our San Jose office. Presence is also required at events and as needed in-office, for example for sample shipments. 
• Driving required between San Francisco, East Bay, and San Jose 
• Occasional evening or event hours, expected 4-5 days per month 
• Ability to transport event materials and product samples 

Logistics
