Associate Marketing Manager
About Tock
Tock is changing the way restaurants, wineries, and culinary event organizers run their business and how guests explore, discover, and book at these places all around the globe. This includes a robust reservation, pickup and delivery, guest, and table management system for businesses of all sizes.
Nick Kokonas and Chef Grant Achatz opened Alinea to international fanfare in 2005—now a perennial Michelin three star and widely considered one of the best restaurants in the world. From the start they were spending an average of $140,000 a year on staff dedicated to managing reservations and losing an average of $260,000 a year on cancellations, problems Nick wanted to solve. Nick founded Tock with Brian Fitzpatrick, founder of Google's Chicago engineering office, to do just that — to design and develop a new, robust reservation platform to change the way people around the world search, book, and dine.

Why Tock
Over 3,000 restaurants, from neighborhood favorites to the world’s best use Tock to manage reservations, book pickup and delivery orders, run events, reduce no-shows, increase sales, and improve hospitality. That is an exciting challenge and an incredible responsibility, but what brings us the most joy is how much our customers credit Tock for their viability and success — especially now. Our unwavering mission has been to help restaurants run better businesses, which is why we didn’t slow down or stand idle as the pandemic made waves throughout the hospitality industry. We quickly spun up a robust but low-cost pickup and delivery feature, a first of its kind contactless ordering and payment flow, and new configuration tools to help restaurants reopen safely. The praise and appreciation has been unending and the number of businesses switching to Tock continues to soar. Our mission to support restaurants and build a bridge to the future is brighter than ever.
