About the Role

We are looking for experienced and energetic Baristas to join our team at the Union Square Holiday Market for the upcoming holiday season. From November 14 to December 24, you’ll have the opportunity to work in one of NYC’s most iconic holiday markets, serving customers delicious and innovative beverages in a lively, festive atmosphere. We make a Korean-style bone broth, which we’ll serve as a sipping broth and also use to make broth-based lattes (yes, they’re delicious and have been a big hit at farmers markets). As a barista, you will be responsible for crafting high-quality lattes, providing excellent customer service, and helping create a warm and inviting environment for holiday shoppers.

Qualifications

  • 1+ years of barista experience required, including experience with espresso machines.
  • Passion for lattes, customer service, and creating a positive atmosphere.
  • Strong multitasking abilities, especially in a fast-paced environment.
  • Outgoing and friendly personality with excellent communication skills.
  • Attention to detail in drink preparation and presentation.
  • Ability to work on your feet for extended periods of time.
  • Many shifts available, strong preference for those who can commit to a regular schedule for the full market season.
  • Experience working in high-traffic, outdoor environments is a plus.
  • Must have NY Food Protection Certificate.
Key Responsibilities
  • Prepare and serve a variety of broth-based drinks to customers.
  • Maintain a clean, organized, and well-stocked prep station.
  • Uphold our high standards for drink quality, consistency, and presentation.
  • Share product knowledge and offer recommendations to customers when needed.
  • Keep up with demand during busy market hours, especially weekends, lunch hours, and evenings.
  • Ensure a welcoming and friendly experience for all customers.
  • Assist with restocking, setup, and open/closing of the booth as needed.
  • Maintain compliance with health and safety standards at all times.
Perks:
  • Competitive pay: $20 per hour (plus tips)
  • Potential for retention bonus based on hours/commitment to full season.
  • Play a role in the early stages of a growing company with a meaningful mission.
  • Be part of a vibrant and festive holiday market atmosphere.
  • Opportunity to work in one of New York City's most renowned seasonal markets.
  • Engage with holiday shoppers and spread the holiday spirit.


If you have a passion for creative lattes, enjoy working in a dynamic environment, and want to be part of the festive holiday season, we’d love to hear from you!

We are Reclamation Foods (formerly Heart & Seoul Food Co.), and we are reclaiming our collective cultural wisdom around food - that means restoring healthy soils and making use of the whole animal to nourish our community through traditional foods. Our mission is to build a climate-positive food system that promotes regenerative agriculture, regional farming and processing, and whole-animal nutrition to produce real, wholesome foods rooted in culture.

I founded this company after leaving tech to apprentice on a regenerative livestock farm. From there, I learned how rare it was in America to use the whole animal. In fact, almost half of a cow and a third of a pig are considered "inedible," according to the USDA. That's a lot we're leaving on the table, including incredible nutrition for our communities and a missed revenue opportunity for our small farmers and processors. More about our founding story here: https://reclamationfoods.com/pages/about

This year, we are part of the Union Square Holiday Market, one of the largest holiday markets in the world drawing crowds of 10k+ people every day from November to December. We are setting up a Korean Broth Bar to introduce creative ways of using our signature Korean bone broth, a traditional and warming food. In addition to wholesome sipping broths, we are incredibly excited to serve up a limited menu of broth-based lattes, including a matcha latte, turmeric latte, and a salted honey peppermint hot cocoa.

In addition to building out a CPG brand to contribute to a climate-positive food system, we're also exploring a brick and mortar concept that will be similar to the Korean Broth Bar we're setting up at the holiday market. If things go well, there may be additional long-term growth opportunities related to this business unit.
