 Uncorkd provides interactive, iPad beverage menus for restaurants. Instead of restaurant diners being presented with a paper drink menu, they’re provided an iPad to view tasting notes, see pictures and get recommendations. Uncorkd software is used by hundreds of restaurants and bars nationwide. We’re on a mission to disrupt the way restaurants manage their entire beverage programs.

The $200 billion beverage industry is antiquated and everything from performing inventory to placing orders from vendors is still done by paper and pen for 95% of restaurants and bars. There is a very large opportunity to provide value-added tools to help the over 350,000 US establishments that serve alcohol better manage their beverage inventory, menus, ordering and provide analytics and data to help improve operations.

We’re looking for a part-time Administrative Assistant to help with extra things with our daily workload. The role is a mix of administrative, office, executive assistant, operations and generally we need a well-rounded Jack/Jill of All Trades. This is a fast-paced environment and the type of work to be done will be changing constantly, based on what we have going on at the moment and your particular skillset.

Some responsibilities include, but are not limited to:

  • Assisting as a sales/marketing admin (finding prospect contact information, helping our marketing person with content, various research tasks)
  • Assist with billing, processing customer payments, and A/R in Quickbooks
  • Setup and organize iPads for customer shipments
  • Run errands (usually to FedEx, our iPad repair shop or Mariano’s)
  • Various data entry tasks
  • Assist with paperwork and ordering supplies
  • Help CEO by screening calls, planning travel, and other exec admin tasks

What We Are Looking For

  • Very tech savvy and proficient with web and mobile software
  • Self-motivated and a very fast learner who can work under minimal direction
  • Very strong attention to detail and a mindset of *exceeding* expectations
  • Extremely reliable and trustworthy
  • Experience with any of the following a strong plus: Salesforce, Quickbooks, Photoshop, Illustrator, blog/content writing, lead generation research, beverage/hospitality industry, past admin work experience

What We Provide

  • A great, fun environment in an interesting industry
  • Experience with a tech startup and learning new software and tools
  • Occasional wine/beer tastings in the office
  • Opportunity to make a real difference with your work contributing to the success of the company
  • Our current office has a free fitness center, pool and rooftop deck available for use

This is a very small office environment. Position is part-time between 14-20 hours per week. Days/times flexible, but would like a consistent schedule. For example, may be MWF 5 hours per day or MTWF 4 hours per day.

When applying, please answer the following three questions in your email:
1. Why do you want to work for Uncorkd?
2. Why do you believe you’re a good fit?
3. What makes you exceptional? What can you contribute that most other candidates can’t?

Applicants that ignore the above questions will not be considered. Please no phone calls or recruiters regarding the position. We will respond to candidates we are interested in speaking with further.
