DEEPER THAN BAGELS.

Call Your Mother is the Jew-ish deli where Boca meets Brooklyn, grandma-level hospitality meets seriously good bagel sandwiches, and hard work meets face-melting vibes.

Husband-and-wife team Andrew and Chef Dani built Call Your Mother around one simple idea: people deserve incredible food made by people who give an F. From our first farmers market stand in 2018, to shops across the DMV, Colorado, Chicago, and Philadelphia, we've grown by obsessing over the details and blasting the music and laughing along the way. Behind every great guest experience is an even greater kitchen team.

YOU'LL CRUSH THIS ROLE IF...
  • You have 2-5 years experience leading sanitation programs in a commercial kitchen, commissary, or food manufacturing environment.
  • You have strong knowledge of HACCP, GMPs, SSOPs, FDA Food Code, OSHA regulations, and food safety best practices.
  • You care deeply about food safety and take pride in doing things the right way, every time.
  • You notice the details because you know the smallest oversight can become the biggest problem.
  • You lead by example and aren't afraid to roll up your sleeves alongside your team.
  • You stay calm under pressure and know how to solve problems before they become bigger ones.
  • You're an organized communicator who can coach others while keeping detailed records.
  • You're digging our big BIG V.I.B.E.S. (Vibrancy, Integrity, Belonging, Energy, and Seize the Moment)

If you're catching what we’re throwing, please read on!

HOW YOU'LL SPEND YOUR DAY

No two shifts are exactly alike, but you might:

  • Build beautiful sandwiches that guests can't wait to eat.
  • Lead the daily cleaning and sanitation of production areas, equipment, and food-contact surfaces.
  • Coach, train, and develop the sanitation team while promoting accountability and food safety.
  • Conduct pre-operational inspections to ensure production areas are clean, sanitized, and ready for the day's work.
  • Ensure sanitation procedures meet HACCP, GMP, SSOP, FDA Food Code, OSHA, and company standards.
  • Verify proper preparation and use of cleaning chemicals, sanitizer concentrations, and required contact times.
  • Maintain sanitation logs, cleaning records, chemical usage documentation, and compliance paperwork.
  • Investigate sanitation issues, identify root causes, and implement corrective actions.
  • Support internal food safety audits and continuously improve sanitation processes.
  • Monitor pest prevention practices and partner with vendors when needed.
  • Ensure proper storage, labeling, and handling of cleaning chemicals and sanitation supplies.
  • Maintain Safety Data Sheets (SDS) and train team members on safe chemical handling and PPE requirements.
  • Identify workplace hazards and help create a cleaner, safer production environment every day.
