Job Description

Bellevue Christian School (BCS) is recognized as one of the largest independent Christian schools in the Puget Sound area, committed to fostering a learning community grounded in scholarship, relationship, and discipleship. This renowned school operates from a foundation of faith and academic excellence, offering students a transformative educational experience that nurtures both intellectual growth and spiritual development. The school supports a professional environment where staff members can thrive while living out their Christian calling, making it an exceptional place to contribute to meaningful ministry through education and service. BCS blends academic rigor with a deep commitment to Christian values, creating a vibrant community where students and employees are encouraged to grow in faith and character alongside scholarship and service.

The role of Assistant Deli Manager at Bellevue Christian School's Clyde Hill campus is pivotal to the smooth operation of the Deli, a vital food service component during the school year. This part-time position requires a dedicated individual who can support the Deli Manager in all aspects of food service coordination while modeling Christ-like servanthood, cooperation, and accountability. Working 6.5 hours a day, five days a week across 185 days during the school year, the Assistant Deli Manager is an integral part of ensuring healthy, high-quality food options and a welcoming environment for students, staff, and the broader school community.

The Assistant Deli Manager's responsibilities span a broad range of operational, supervisory, and customer service functions. This includes maintaining fresh stock, preparing food, arranging appealing displays, managing sales transactions, and addressing customer concerns with patience and honesty. The role also involves using various deli equipment like ovens and scales, training and supervising student volunteers and Deli Assistants, and ensuring compliance with all health and safety regulations as a primary liaison with the Health Department. In the absence of the Deli Manager, this role steps up to manage menu selections, procure supplies, coordinate vendor deliveries, and handle financial transactions, reflecting a high degree of trust and responsibility.

This position demands a balance of practical skills in food service management, leadership, and a strong commitment to the school's values. The Assistant Deli Manager should be capable of creating a clean, safe, and positive atmosphere in the deli environment while supporting student engagement and development through training and supervision. With a salary range of $18.07 to $19.95 per hour depending on experience, this role offers competitive compensation within a nurturing Christian educational setting. Candidates will be expected to hold a current Health Department card and undergo OSPI fingerprint and background clearance as part of the hiring process.
