Interested in a fun, flexible and rewarding Part-Time Job?
What we do:
The Mobile Scoop Shop is a Frozen dessert catering service. We hand-scoop Ice Cream and our own (Mita's) Italian Ice (sorbet like vegan dessert) in bowls, sugar cones, waffle cones, custom ice cream sandwiches, draft-style root beer floats and sundae topping bars.
As a private party carter, we our primary business is weddings and corporate parties. These types of events can be booked out weeks or months in advance. In between these bookings, we fill our schedule with an occasional farmers market or street vending service. Most of our booked events (weddings) run heavily on weekends (Saturdays), but corporate events tend to be during the week (lunches or afternoon snacks) or on Sundays.
How we serve:
We have two types or equipment we serve from, a service van (Dodge ProMaster high roof) and mobile sidewalk carts. Staff will take equipment, unload, set up, serve guests during a designated time period, clean up, break down and return equipment. Most events require two staff people. Some events will have service from our service van.
1. The Van serves from a side service window, has an awning, a digital TV menu board and solar panels to recharge the onboard equipment battery. It sports an 8 flavor freezer, hand-wash sink, and storage for all the necessary service supplies.
2. The Mobile Cart is a 6 flavor display freezer on a wheeled frame that incorporates side shelves, a sneeze guard and an umbrella. The cart is unloaded from the van (via electric winch) or cargo trailer and pushed to service site location, set up and then served from. When sundae bars or root beer floats are requested, additional service equipment will also be set up such as sundae service carts, a kegerator and/or coolers.
Who our clients are:
Our clients are people and businesses that are looking for a professional way to be kids again, if even just for an ice cream moment. They remember how sharing ice cream has made them feel as kids, and are looking to treat their guests in a fun way that crosses all barriers. Ice cream is the universal language of childhood joy. We want to be the professional that allows them to be a kid again without judgements. (What happens at The Mobile Scoop Shop, stays at The Mobile Scoop Shop.) :-)
How we interact:
We are hired to help make an event special. Smiles, light joking, friendly chat are all ways we achieve this. We want our interactions with the guests to leave them with a very positive feeling about their experience.
Our team:
Our staff are happy, dependable people who enjoy interacting with adults and kids alike. They are most prized asset, because we are not simply scooping ice cream, we are providing an experience.
About the job:
Our gigs typically run 4-6 hours (setup to serve then return), our street vending service can run 6-8 hours in a location.
Our pre-booked schedule is a living document and kept online in a Google Docs file. Staff sign up for the events they are available to do. We are very heavy on some weekends and light on others, so availability is important on those heavy weekends. We then fill in our local street vending availability based on our catering schedule.
Because our needs can vary based on when our bookings fall, our needs tend to fall into categories:
This is a fun job but requires dependable people. College students, teachers on summer breaks, parents with kids that just want a few extra $$ are encouraged to apply
If this sounds like a good fit for you, send me a note, and attach a resume to info (at) TheMobileSCoopShop.com along with your availability to meet in person.
