Our Team

 

Everything at Moo Shu is thoughtfully dreamed up and homemade in small batches. From ice cream to cafe beverages and pastries, we have a shared passion for offering creations that are memorable in their novelty, nostalgia, and ability to highlight heritage and ecology.

We also work hard to treat our customers with enthusiasm and care that you won't find anywhere else. We put our hearts into our high-touch small-batch processes and we are equally committed to creating the most supportive and inclusive work environment in the industry. We are always working to enhance the happiness, fulfillment, and health of our Mooshies by providing paid sick leave, leadership training, social gatherings, benefits for full-time staff and of course, all the ice cream and coffee!

At Moo Shu Ice Cream, we believe in investing in our people. For all our roles, specific experience is preferred but never required. Show us that your values are aligned with our culture, meaning that you:

  • are an optimist and a team player
  • have self-discipline and strong work ethic
  • are a proactive and quick learner who is adaptable to change
  • value kindness to people and the environment
  • have passions in life, particularly in food
