About Just Fare

We started as a Bay Area food and farm consultancy called Fare Resources in 2009 and have evolved into a multi-faceted social enterprise called Just Fare. What remains true throughout our journey is our commitment to good food and good people: creating great culinary and hospitality jobs, designing better culinary working environments, and sourcing as much good food from the local community as possible.

Today we offer products and services to deliver on our mission. We make great food for all people to support a better food system and demonstrate fair business practices by providing a quality workplace and creating delicious, dignified food for our community.

About Just Fare Management

This is a position with great growth potential as the EC will eventually contribute to the concept, planning, and management of future food programs as the client scales. Just Fare is a nimble growing food company and is looking for a unique EC who is a great people person and knows how to get the best from everyone, is detail-oriented, knows how to implement systems and tools efficiently and effectively, and is a true problem-solver no matter the challenge.
