About Weckerly’s Ice Cream
At Weckerly’s Ice Cream, we’re passionate about creating products and experiences that make people feel good.

Handcrafted in Philadelphia, our ice cream is made with the finest ingredients, and we’re known for both our classic flavors and our inventive, seasonal offerings—including our beloved ice cream sandwiches. Over the years, we've introduced more than 300 flavors to our loyal customers.
We operate two scoop shops (Fishtown and King of Prussia), with a third location opening soon in Rittenhouse. Each shop offers 12 scooped flavors, pints, and sandwiches. We release new flavors regularly while keeping essentials like vanilla and chocolate on deck.
Retail Manager
We’re looking for someone who thrives in a guest-facing environment, takes pride in coaching a team, and leads by example—scooping ice cream, connecting with customers, and making sure every shift runs smoothly. This is a hands-on role that requires presence, consistency, and a love of service.
