The company values diversity and inclusion, professional growth, and creating workplace environments where employees feel valued and empowered. With a large presence in educational facilities like Pratt Institute, Compass Group provides comprehensive food services designed to meet the needs of students, faculty, and staff in vibrant campus settings.

The full-time Cashier role at Compass Group based at Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, NY, is an essential position focused on providing friendly, efficient service in a campus café environment.

Compass Group supports its associates through a comprehensive benefits package, including health insurance options, retirement plans, wellness programs, and employee assistance resources. The company also offers opportunities for training and career development, ensuring employees can grow and thrive professionally.

Working for Compass Group at Pratt Institute means joining a reputable employer that is committed to equal opportunity employment and maintaining drug-free and safe workplaces. The company’s inclusive culture is welcoming to all qualified applicants and attentive to workplace accommodations when necessary. This role is ideal for candidates who have prior cashier, stocking, and cleaning experience, a strong work ethic, and a passion for providing great service in fast-paced campus food environments. Applying is streamlined with digital applications accepted online, and candidates can access further assistance via a conversational recruiting assistant by texting JOB to 75000.
