Seasonal Associate

About the role

HoneyBaked is hiring seasonal associates to join the team for the Easter, Thanksgiving, and Christmas holidays each year. These positions are ideal for students, teachers, retirees, or anyone seeking extra income without a long‑term commitment, offering truly flexible scheduling to work around family, school, or other obligations. You’ll find a great culture built on the core values of “Serve Others” and “Do The Right Thing,” with an emphasis on authenticity and living those values in the community we serve.

• Respond positively to customer requests or comments.
• Demonstrate superior product knowledge and effectively articulate product features and benefits.
• Drive add‑on sales through suggestion selling.
• Maintain store cleanliness and merchandising standards.
• Take initiative and remain productive throughout the entire shift, taking responsibility for activities within your control.
• Consistently follow all processes and procedures and comply with company standards in all areas, from service to food preparation and control.
• Adhere to safety, security, and respectful workplace policies and procedures.

Requirements

• Good communication skills and attention to detail.
• Prior customer service or food preparation experience preferred; experience as a cook, cashier, crew member, sales associate, or store associate is a big plus.
• Physical dexterity and mobility to perform job demands, which may include working with a hot torch.
• Requires bending, stooping, standing for long periods, twisting, and lifting products and supplies.
• Ham production associates may be required to lift up to 65 pounds.

• Free ham or turkey breast after completing the holiday schedule (a gift card may be substituted depending on product availability).
