The company prioritizes equal employment opportunities and fosters an inclusive environment free from discrimination based on race, color, religion, national origin, age, sex, gender identity, disability, sexual orientation, veteran status, or any other protected characteristics under applicable law.

The Food Service Supervisor role at Aramark is a full-time position offering an hourly wage ranging from $21.00 to $23.00, reflecting the company’s commitment to providing competitive compensation for its employees. This role is designed for individuals looking to advance their careers while leading and mentoring a dedicated team within the food services sector. As part of the passionate Food Services Team, the Food Service Supervisor works closely with a manager to coordinate and oversee daily operations, ensuring that quality standards and safety requirements are met.

In this dynamic position, your responsibilities will include producing schedules, maintaining food production standards, supervising staff, and ensuring compliance with health and safety regulations.

As a proactive team member, you will perform preventative maintenance, recommend equipment updates, and occasionally fill in for absent staff members. The position also involves some cashier responsibilities if needed, alongside promoting positive public relations at all times.

This opportunity offers a unique platform for candidates eager to develop new skills and contribute meaningfully to their workplace while advancing professionally. Aramark’s comprehensive benefits package supports employee well-being with medical, dental, vision coverage, retirement savings plans such as 401(k), and paid leave options including parental leave and disability coverage. Benefits may vary by location and eligibility.

Joining Aramark as a Food Service Supervisor unlocks the potential for personal growth, leadership development, and the chance to make a significant impact through your passion and dedication.
