• Have the ability to physically carry and transport large multi-tier cakes with extreme care and comfortably carry 30–50 lbs alone.
• Have the ability to assist in decorating custom cakes (i.e., adding cake toppers and florals or arranging dessert tables). Training provided.
• Have strong communication skills.
• Be able to visually examine products for quality and specifications.
• Have a positive attitude and be willing to go the extra mile for our clients.
• Have availability for Thursday food truck deliveries and Friday, Saturday, and Sunday deliveries, including Sunday night food truck returns, with flexibility for occasional weekday deliveries.
• Have a smartphone with GPS capability, text messaging, and a camera.
• Be willing to provide a clean driving record from the Texas Department of Public Safety and have a valid driver’s license.
