We are seeking a detail-oriented team member to join us as our Operations Coordinator. This role will be responsible for order entry and logistics, as well as assisting in inventory management.

WHO WE ARE

Our mission at Partake is simple—we make snacking and sharing deliciously worry-free and simple for today’s healthy and allergy-conscious consumers. Our first offering is a line of cookies that make customers say “I can’t believe this cookie is vegan, gluten-free and allergy-friendly!”

Since launching in August 2017, our distribution has grown to over 2,800 stores including Target, Whole Foods, Sprouts, and Wegmans. You would be joining us in rapid growth mode.

Partake was founded by Denise Woodard, a mom with a decade of CPG experience who saw a need for safe, healthy snacks that taste good. Partake has earned recognition from both a business perspective (Fall 2018 Chobani Incubator, Google’s “Black Founders” 2017 winner) and product perspective (MindBodyGreen’s “Healthiest Cookies You Can Buy”, People’s “Editor’s Picks”, and Preventions “Cleanest Packaged Foods” list).
