Skratch Labs Table FOH/Barista

Role: Skratch Labs FOH/Barista

Employment Type:Part to full-time, Non-Exempt

Compensation: $17 per hour Tips, depending on experience

Location: Boulder, CO

About you:

I care about people and find purpose and meaning in making others feel welcome, nurtured, and heard. I believe that hospitable service to others is what really matters. I can lead with authority and use my strong organizational and communication skills to give others the structure and direction to be their best.

I’m passionate about athletics, food, drink, and hospitality. I want to contribute and help build a place that fuses these passions into a community centered cafe that becomes a hub for connection, nurturing, and a real sense of belonging.

I’ve worked for many years in the food drink industry and take great pride in forging a professional career in this area as well as helping others do the same.

About us:

We believe that food and drink is just better when made from scratch and that no matter where we find ourselves in life, it’s never too late to start from scratch.

These beliefs drove our founders - two pro cycling veterans - to start mixing a better sports drink in paint buckets at their local hardware store for their friends and teammates. This inspired them to do something they had no experience and literally no business doing - starting a packaged foods company.

Almost ten years later, Skratch Labs has grown a passionate following of athletes from around the world who want simple real food sports nutrition based on science not marketing. These athletes have allowed us to grow profitably every year we’ve been in business. But, what we’re most proud of is how hard we work to take care of them and our employees - work that has culminated in being named as one of the top 50 companies to work for by Outside Magazine for the last two years.

As part of our care of athletes, we’ve always taken an unconventional approach to business, including running a food truck at athletic events and writing the Feed Zone cookbook series. Through these experiences, we’ve become passionate about hospitality and are planning to open a cafe in January 2023, off the famed Pearl Street Mall in Boulder, that brings a permanent home to our once mobile food truck operation. It’s a place that will be the very heart of our brand.
