If you’re the kind of person who takes pride in doing things well, enjoys learning by doing, and wants to be part of a team that values trust and quality—you might feel right at home here.
We’re a small, mission-driven butcher shop in Evanston known for sourcing from family farms, knowing our customers by name, and doing things the old-fashioned way: with care, consistency, and real human connection.
In this role, you’ll:
Start by supporting the team behind the scenes: cleaning, stocking, setting up
Learn to use the slicer, help at the register, and assist customers
Grow into prepping and cutting meat with guidance
Work a stable daytime schedule that includes Tuesdays, Saturdays, Sundays, and more
Become part of the rhythm of the shop—especially during busy seasons and holidays
This could be a great fit if you:
Are someone people count on to show up and follow through
Feel comfortable staying active, moving with awareness, and asking smart questions
Want to do meaningful, physical work as part of a team
Live nearby and are looking for something steady, not short-term
See yourself growing into a long-term role where you can contribute and keep learning
Compensation:
Hourly pay above minimum wage, based on experience. No health insurance is offered.
