We’re Hiring: Meat Counter Retail Butcher Shop Sales – Sonoma County Meat Co.
There’s a rhythm to working the counter. There is joy in offering food that’s been raised with respect and cut with precision. If that rhythm speaks to you — if you see beauty in a full meat case and the pride in a clean meat block — we want you here.
The Role:
You’ll be the voice and face of Sonoma County Meat Co. You’re not just ringing people up — you’re guiding them toward what to grill, braise, or roast next.
You speak the language of food, of fat caps and fine marbling, and know when to suggest the thick-cut bacon or housemade jerky — because they are all delicious.
This is retail for people who believe in good meat. Not factory. Not filler. Just honest cuts handled with care.
What We Value:
A sense of hospitality that runs deep — people remember how you made them feel.
An eye for presentation — every steak, sausage, and lamb shank in its place.
The discipline of the everyday — full cases, rotated stock, clean floors, sharp knives.
The ability to work with urgency and grace, especially when the line gets long.
Core Duties:
Greet everyone like you’ve been expecting them.
Answer the phone like it matters.
Upsell because you believe in what we’re selling.
Keep the freezer and case tight: FIFO, labeled, organized.
Handle the cash drawer with intention and accuracy.
Our Measures of Success:
Attention to average ticket sales — because quality sells itself, with a nudge.
Zero drawer errors. Zero bad reviews.
A full case, a clean counter, a happy customer.
You Bring:
2+ years in food, retail, or service
Confidence, humility, hustle
A steady hand and a sharp instinct for flow
A love of meat and the people who come to buy it
Food Handler Certificate
What You Get:
To work with some of the finest meat in Northern California
Daily immersion in the world of small-batch, pasture-raised, old-world cuts
Staff discounts, of course — we want you eating well
A place to build skills, knowledge, and community
