WHO WE ARE:
Founded in 1973, the Boise Co-op has grown from a small buying club into a vibrant community of over 50,000 active Co-Owners. With two grocery stores—one in the North End and one at the Village in Meridian—plus our Wine Shop, Pet Shop, and Uncorked Wine Bar, we’re more than just a store. We’re a local hub built on community, education, great food, and trusted products. Independent and people-focused, we lead with heart and give back to the community we call home.
We are looking for an energetic Deli Associate!
Love food? Love people? Love the sound of slicing, sizzling, and steaming your way through a fast-paced day? We’re looking for upbeat, food-loving folks to join our Deli team at Boise Co-op!
As a Deli Associate, you’ll help build delicious burritos, sandwiches, pizzas, and more—all made fresh with top-notch ingredients and a whole lot of care. You’ll keep things clean, organized, and running like a well-oiled (but food-safe) machine.
What You’ll Be Up To:
Making magic at one of our Deli stations: Coffee, Burrito, Sandwich, Pizza, or Cheese
Building and slicing custom orders like a pro (don’t worry, we’ll teach you the recipes)
Prepping your station, keeping it clean, and closing it down with pride
Delivering awesome customer service with a smile—even during the lunch rush
Keeping the grab-and-go case fresh and full
Mastering equipment from mixers to knives and everything in between
Stocking utensils, napkins, sauces, and all the extras that keep customers happy
Pitching in wherever needed—because teamwork makes the dream work
What We’re Looking For:
Positive vibes and great communication
Ability to follow recipes and directions (bonus points if you already know your way around a kitchen)
Comfort in a busy, fast-moving environment
Willingness to learn, grow, and support your team
Dependable and flexible—able to work early mornings, evenings, weekends, and stay on schedule
Nice-to-Haves (but not deal-breakers):
Knife skills and food prep experience
Perks of the Gig:
Fun, friendly coworkers who love what they do
A work environment where your effort is appreciated
All the good smells
Discounts on delicious Co-op goodies
The chance to be part of a local, community-minded business
Physical Stuff to Know: You’ll be on your feet most of the day, moving around, lifting up to 50 lbs, and using kitchen tools. Basically, it’s an active role—perfect for someone who likes to stay busy.
