High-Energy Team Member Wanted for Izzy’s Ices! 🍨☕🥨 at Izzy's Ices

Izzy’s Ices in Downtown Santa Cruz is hitting the "refresh" button!
We’ve spent over two years perfecting our craft, and now we’re looking for a foundation crew of independent, fast-learning individuals to help us run the show.

The Role: The Solo Shop Operator
At Izzy’s, you aren’t just a "scooper." You are a Barista, a Pretzel Pro, and a Brand Ambassador all in one. Because our shifts are typically solo, we need people who take pride in "owning" the shop while they’re on the clock.

What We’re Looking For:
High-Speed Precision: You grasp new skills quickly—whether it’s pulling a perfect espresso, mastering the "Izzy’s Shave" for Italian ice, or timing a hot pretzel.

System-Driven: We have clear, documented processes for everything. You’re someone who loves a good checklist because it helps you move fast without missing a beat.
Authentically Reliable: You’re the "CEO" of your shift. You show up on time, every time, ready to lead.

Core Values: You lead with Honesty, Respect, Reliability, and Fun & Smiles.

Growth Potential: We are looking for our first Shift Lead from this founding group—a path to management for those who want it.
Independent Environment: A fun, fast-paced workspace where you are trusted to run help the business.
