🍝 SPIRITO’S IS HIRING — CREW MEMBER

We’re looking to add one dependable, versatile person to the Spirito’s Crew.

This is a 14–28 hour/week position, with our biggest need being Monday–Friday daytime/opening shifts, generally around 8 AM–3/4 PM.

We’re a small team, so there isn’t a strict front-of-house or back-of-house role here.

Everybody does everything.

You may spend part of your shift preparing food in the kitchen and another part helping customers, running register, stocking, cleaning, answering phones, or jumping in wherever the crew needs you.

What we’re looking for

* 18+
* Strong weekday daytime availability
* Dependable, low-drama, and good with people
* Flexible between kitchen, register, stocking, and cleaning
* Able to lift 30–50 lbs
* Prior kitchen, deli, restaurant, grocery, or food-service experience preferred
* A genuine interest in Italian food, culture, heritage, and local Collinsville history is a big plus

How our crew works:

Spirito’s uses a more self-governed crew structure with a Kitchen Lead instead of layers of traditional management.

We expect everyone to communicate, take ownership, help each other, and hold each other accountable. We’re a fun, close-knit crew, so a good sense of humor goes a long way.

Pay + perks:

* $16/hour after completing ServSafe requirements and your first 100 hours worked
* Shared crew tip pool
* Bonus pool opportunities
* Tip and bonus pools are distributed based on each employee’s percentage of total crew labor worked
* 30% employee discount at both Spirito’s Italian Grocery and Casa Di Spirito
* Opportunities to take on more responsibility over time
* Potential for additional shifts at Casa Di Spirito as that business grows

We also like to lean into people’s special talents and interests.

If you’re especially good at sales, merchandising, photography, social media, events, organization, cooking, decorating, content—or if you’re the kind of person who genuinely loves Italian food, family traditions, Collinsville history, and local culture—we want to know about it.

In a small business, the right person can contribute in a lot of different ways.
