Operations Specialist – Yelibelly Chocolates

Yelibelly Chocolates is a chocolate company specializing in corporate gifts, liquid nitrogen ice cream events, and custom confections for clients across the country.

We're looking for an organized, hands-on Operations Specialist to help keep our production and event operations running smoothly.

This position starts part-time to learn the business in our slow season and will be full-time by October. If you enjoy solving problems, keeping things organized, and helping a small business run efficiently, we'd love to meet you.

No two days are exactly alike, but your responsibilities may include:

• Coordinate weekly production schedules and event preparation with our chocolatiers and office staff
• Prepare supplies and equipment for off-site events
• Order inventory and supplies, including packaging, ingredients, and office needs
• Help package chocolates and corporate gifts during busy production periods
• Pack and ship customer orders
• Assist with customer emails and general office support
• Maintain an organized production facility and inventory areas
• Look for ways to improve systems and keep operations running smoothly
• Jump in wherever needed to help the team succeed

• Loves organization and keeping projects on track
• Enjoys variety and doesn't mind wearing multiple hats
• Takes initiative instead of waiting to be told what to do
• Is dependable, positive, and enjoys working with a small, close-knit team
• Can prioritize multiple tasks without getting overwhelmed
• Has solid computer and email skills
• Has reliable transportation (onsite in Addison) and clean driving record

Experience in events, hospitality, catering, food production, logistics, or operations is a plus—but we're willing to train the right person with a great attitude and exceptional organizational skills.

Schedule:

Monday-Friday, daytime hours

Flexible start time in the morning

Starting Pay: $21-$24/hour, depending on experience, full time will be salaried

• PTO and sick time
• Lots of free chocolate

We're a small business, which means you'll have the opportunity to make a real impact. Your ideas matter, your work will be appreciated, and as our company continues, this position is designed to grow with it.

If you're looking for an opportunity to become an important part of a growing company, we'd love to hear from you.
