About Us: At Little Gems, we’re on a mission to prove that healthy food can be fun, fast, and seriously craveable. We serve up salads and bowls with bold flavors, locally grown goodness, and a pop of personality. Healthy food isn’t boring—and neither are we!
We’re brand new in town, located in the soon-to-be-open Park Square Market (sister to Sawmill Market), situated in Uptown Albuquerque. We are looking for a strong opening team to kick things off and grow with us, and we are super excited to meet you!
About You: You’re the first smile people see when they walk through our door, and let’s be real—you make a great first impression. You’ve got energy for days, a knack for keeping things organized, and a vibe that makes people want to come back again and again. If you:
- Love connecting with people and making their day a little better
- Have the speed and multitasking skills of a pro (taking orders, ringing folks up, no sweat!)
- Can answer “What’s your favorite bowl?” with enthusiasm
- Bring personality to the job but leave drama at the door…
Then you might just be our next Server/Cashier! (aka guest experience wizard)

- Taking orders with speed, accuracy, and a little flair
- Keeping the front-of-house sparkling clean and well-stocked
- Handling transactions and making sure every guest leaves happy
- Reading guest cues to ensure a great experience
- Helping your fellow team members on the line when they need an extra hand

- Availability: Flexibility to work a variety of shifts, including evenings and weekends.
- Food Safety: You are a current New Mexico Certified Food Handler, or you are willing to get certified
