Job description

Our story began in 2011 when a group of office workers at a major logistics company in Chicago had a lunch problem. Nearby options were limited, and the team was spending too much time and money traveling to their favorite restaurants. They had an idea: bring Chicago’s local restaurant culture inside the office. It was an immediate hit, and when they discovered people from other companies sneaking in for lunch, they knew they were on to something.

Fooda pioneered the concept of rotating popup restaurants inside workplaces. Today, we operate in 60 cities, have served over 100 million meals, and continue to grow rapidly. Powered by technology and a network of 3,500+ restaurants, we bring unique food programs to companies, office buildings, hospitals, schools, distribution centers, and more. At Fooda, we believe a workplace food program should be something people love and look forward to every day.

As Dining Manager, you will play a central role in the success of a Fooda dining program, serving as a key liaison for the client while helping create an efficient, high-quality experience for customers, restaurant partners, and on-site staff.
