To thrive as an Ice Cream Ambassador, you need excellent customer service skills, a friendly demeanor, and basic food handling knowledge, often supported by a food safety certification. Familiarity with point-of-sale (POS) systems and inventory management tools is also important. Strong communication, teamwork, and a positive attitude help create memorable guest experiences and foster brand loyalty. These skills ensure efficient operations, customer satisfaction, and a welcoming environment in retail or food service settings.

Job description

Now Hiring: Ambassador

  • Compensation: $12 per hour - $15 per hour
  • Location: Huntsville, AL


Jeni’s Splendid Ice Creams is seeking Ambassadors to join the Huntsville, AL team!

Jeni’s is devoted to making better ice creams and bringing people together. Our scoop shops are at the heart of how we fulfill this mission. They are where we serve the ice creams we work so hard to build from the ground up—where people come together to share joy and conversation. We love people. We love ice cream. We view ice cream as an art form.

Ambassadors are our part-time, front-line team members. They scoop and serve ice cream to customers, make waffle products, operate the register, keep the shop clean, change ice cream buckets, and perform a variety of other important, related tasks.


As an Ambassador, you will:

  • Serve the ice cream that Time magazine calls “the best in America.”
  • Gain valuable real-world business and entrepreneurship experience.
  • Work in an environment centered on serving one another and making people’s days.
  • Have opportunities for growth within a growing company.
  • Receive competitive compensation.


Qualities of an Ice Cream Ambassador

(also known as a scoop shop employee)

  • Demonstrate a passion for community, an eye for detail, a willingness to clean—a lot—stamina to serve customers during long lines, and the ability to work in a fast-paced environment.
  • Be familiar with what distinguishes Jeni’s Splendid Ice Creams from other ice creams and be able to share that knowledge with customers. You should be able to communicate it to the 500th customer with the same care and presence as the first.
  • Be available to work weekends and late nights, including shifts ending after 11 p.m.
  • Provide consistent, world-class service to every customer.
  • Be reliable, punctual, and ready to hustle for every shift.
  • Be committed to the well-being of the shop team, community, and environment.


About Jeni’s Splendid Ice Creams

Founded by Jeni Britton in 2002, Jeni’s Splendid Ice Creams is a B Corp headquartered in Columbus, Ohio, with scoop shops in more than 20 cities across the country. This footprint creates meaningful opportunities for Team Jeni’s members who are interested in developing their careers or relocating to a new city to learn, grow, and explore.

Ambassadors make a difference in their shop and community through the way they partner with their team and serve customers. If this opportunity sounds delicious to you, please apply.

I acknowledge that the independent franchisee alone will make all decisions concerning employment matters, including hiring, firing, discipline, supervision, staffing, and scheduling. By applying for a job at a franchisee-operated Jeni’s Scoop Shop, I acknowledge that Jeni’s Splendid Ice Creams, LLC will not receive a copy of my employment application and will have no involvement in employment decisions regarding me, including whether I receive an interview or am hired by the franchisee.
