What are the responsibilities and job description for the Team Member position at Taim Mediterranean Kitchen?
We are seeking a friendly and enthusiastic Team Member to join our dynamic team in a fast-paced café environment. As a key member of our team, you will play a vital role in delivering exceptional customer service, preparing high-quality food and drinks, and maintaining a clean and welcoming atmosphere.
OUR STORY
Our story starts knee-deep in a huge pile of chickpeas in NYC’s West Village, where we opened
our first tiny kitchen — bringing the vibrant, fresh flavors of the Mediterranean to the city. Now,
we’re all over NY and beyond, from New Jersey to Maryland to DC to VA.
We are committed to making everything from scratch and using the best ingredients: market-
fresh produce and 18 different Mediterranean herbs and spices to take your taste buds on a trip
with every meal. Every day, the taim kitchen prepares our award-winning dishes from real food
– no microwaves or freezers— making every meal to order just how you want it.
THE OPPORTUNITY
Taim is growing—and fast! We’re on the lookout for people who love food and hospitality to join
our amazing, passionate team. We will train you to be confident in any station you work – cook,
cashier, prep or management. We will give you a clear path to leadership roles within the
company and support your learning so that as we grow, so does your career.
We’re committed to creating an open and inclusive culture where you’ll learn new skills, make
an impact, and be valued for what you do. We don’t just say it, we really encourage our
teammates to live our values: think like an owner, act like family, be curious, stay curious, and
most importantly— have a blast doing it.
