Job Summary

Launch Your Tech Career with an Industry Leader 

Who We Are: 

As the largest online distributor of restaurant supplies and equipment, WebstaurantStore hosts an impressive catalogue of over 430,000 products that are delivered through fast, dependable shipping. Unlike most in the e-commerce arena, almost all of our technological design, development, and system management is done in-house, allowing us to create more custom solutions for our customers, staff, and an ever-changing market. We’re proud that our consistent, organic growth, coupled with a commitment to excellence, has created numerous opportunities for students who seek to sharpen their skills, be fairly compensated for their work, and set the foundation for a successful career in tech. 

One Part of the Bigger Picture 

WebstaurantStore’s parent company, Clark Associates, has made the Central Penn Business Journal’s list of “Top 50 Fastest Growing Companies” in Pennsylvania for 9 years in a row. The base of Clark’s success comes from four key directives: Hiring great people, creating value for customers, and investing in employees and their communities. These pillars drive each of Clark Associates’ multi-million-dollar businesses forward, including WebstaurantStore and other industry-leading names like 11400, Clark Food Service Equipment, The Restaurant Store, and Clark National Accounts.
