FOOD STARTUP SALES, MARKETING & CUSTOMER SERVICE JOB OPENININGS

1. Full-Stack Marketer at Mealmade – San Francisco, CA

Position: Mealmade is looking for a data-driven, creative, tech-savvy, experienced full-stack marketer to join our growing team. Our mission is to make exceptionally healthy eating as easy and delicious as possible. We deliver restaurant-quality, expertly crafted meals into the hands of those who value their time and health. We are a delivery-only restaurant for healthy, delicious food, and we’re growing fast. We’re looking for someone who can pour fuel on the fire and accelerate our growth. In this role, you will lead all aspects of marketing, with a focus on customer acquisition. You will work autonomously (and remotely much of the time), with oversight and guidance from the CEO.

About Mealmade: Mealmade is an on-demand delivery-only restaurant that cooks and delivers unique, delicious meals made for special diets, like gluten-free, paleo, low carb, etc. Customers order in a few clicks from a daily rotating menu and their food arrives hot and ready to eat in about 30 minutes. While 99% of restaurants and food delivery companies target the 60% of consumers who are “normal eaters”, the 40% of Americans with special diets or food restrictions are completely underserved, and this group spends over $7B every year on food in the Bay Area alone. Since launching in October 2015, Mealmade has seen consistent growth. Throughout 2016 the company has grown ~20% month-over-month.
