Name: Maggie Hemsworth
How long with Fooda: 3 years in January
Job Title: Director Fooda Markets
What do you really do:
“Whatever Fooda needs me to do!” Currently Maggie is the acting Restaurant Account Manager for the Philadelphia market but when she gets back to Chicago she will resume duties improving the popup set up, managing all of the Restaurant Account Managers in all markets and directing Select photo shoots just to name a few!
What is the most challenging part about your job?
“As a start up changes happen constantly and quickly so making sure everyone is on the same page and knows how to execute those changes.” This can be challenging when you are trying to maintain consistency with markets across the country.
What is your favorite thing about working at Fooda?
“How small we still feel. Even though Fooda has grown drastically in size (there were 12 people in the company when Maggie started) I can still stop and talk to executives or try something new.” Maggie loves that everyone’s ideas are heard and anyone at Fooda can still make a big impact.
