Are you looking for a place where you can enjoy your work? Harlem Shake's purpose is to create a great environment for people on both sides of the register.

Harlem Shake believes that we are in the community and for the community, and giving back to the neighborhood we grew up in is one of our big priorities.

Responsibilities

Job Summary:

Deliverers deliver our delicious food to the neighborhood homes, but do so much more. They are the ambassadors of the restaurant to numerous hungry people in Harlem. They deliver a high number of deliveries while representing local pride and providing great service. They are in great physical shape, making it a priority to be fast and brave all kinds of weather. (In fact, their busiest days are when weather is either hot or cold!) They have a knowledge of mechanics because they need to maintain their bicycle and electric bike battery so their shifts can go smoothly all the way to the end. They are detail oriented, make sure to deliver correct drinks and shakes, as well as tracking every delivery they make and communicating to the home base after each drop off. They are situated in the front of the restaurant so they are often the first face a guest sees upon entering. When this happens, they make sure to smile and acknowledge each guest they see. They are great team members who support their co-workers and supervisors in achieving common goals and genuinely care about the team. Deliverers maintain their uniform and their delivery tools in great shape.

All of our employees can come from different backgrounds and walks of life, but what we are looking for is something special, that will allow them to blend in seamlessly with the existing crowd of greatness.

Here are a few attributes you must be pretty sure you posses if you think a job with us is not going to be just a waste of your, and our time:

1. You are reliable. You understand delayed MTA schedules and winter blues days, but you always rise against those obstacles and somehow make it where you had committed to arriving, on time, all the time. You know that this will be a nice thing to see in your teammates. You give that respect and you expect it back.

2. You have integrity. You understand guests and team members depend on your best behavior, and you are excited to deliver it in a disciplined manner for common good.

3. You are passionate about personal growth. You know you want to learn, grow and prosper and you are ready to make efforts to improve yourself along the way and keep planning and dreaming up ways on how to better yourself. You always strive to accomplish more even when others don' see anything else that needs to be done.

4. You are humble. If you can't admit weakness, confess mistakes or ask for help from others, this will be a difficult place to work. Everyone makes mistakes, but being able to accept it and let the more experienced team members teach us, will make a big difference in our ability to learn and grow.

5. You are diplomatic and wise in communication. You often think about and have a good understanding of the impact your words, body language, and attitude have on people. You are naturally aware what and when might be good, or not good, to say.

Please take a minute to think about the above qualities and ask yourself if a workplace that holds those very important is what you looking for. We respect that everyone does not have the same preference when it comes to this. We think it is very important to come to work with joy- and we strongly believe that people who would not find themselves at home with the above qualities will not enjoy working here and would not prosper.
