Do you love food?  Do you have a passion for the LA restaurant scene?  Jacmar Foodservice Distribution, founded in 1959, is a major player in the Southern California food distribution industry.  We are a privately held, solidly run company that offers a great benefits package, exciting new challenges, and growth opportunities!   At Jacmar, we’re committed to our work, our customers, having fun and most importantly to each other’s success. 

Can you name more chefs than you can movie stars? Do you like food, cooking, creativity and interconnectivity? Can you thrive with little guidance, unleash your artistic and cinematic/photographic prowess to make something appeal to the masses? Do you have an entrepreneurial, risk-taking, commander mentality and always want to educate and experiment with new social trends of communicating and interacting via social media?

If you said to any of these questions, you should apply. If you said yes to all of these questions, I need you!

If this sounds like something fun that you believe you help build and maintain and grow, send your resume with your social media handles and we will invite you for an interview with the CEO to see if you are creative, organized, artistic, disciplined, and energetic enough to make a sapling a towering sequoia!
