About Sifted
Sifted was founded in 2015 by Kimberly Lexow and Jess Legge with a bold vision — to reimagine office food as an experience rooted in hospitality, sustainability, and intentionality.
What began as a modern take on workplace meals quickly evolved into a nationwide food platform that supports culture, community, and carbon-conscious choices across hundreds of companies.
We’re not a caterer — we’re a workplace food partner.
Our team is our secret sauce — a mix of hospitality pros, culinary experts, technologists, and innovators redefining what it means to build meaningful, stable, and opportunity-filled careers in hospitality.
At Sifted, people stay, grow, and thrive — our team members remain with us three times longer than the industry average.
We offer flexibility, generous perks, and room to grow — hiring builders, operators, creatives, and craftspeople who care about making work (and workplaces) better.
At Sifted, our team culture mirrors the experiences we design for our clients:
Creative Freedom: Everyone contributes ideas and shapes the future of our service.
Hospitality-Driven: No matter your role, you’re in service to someone — and that matters.
Career Growth: We invest in internal mobility, mentorship, and hands-on learning.
People First: We support flexible work, celebrate wins, and lead with empathy.
Real Impact: Every day, your work reduces waste, improves lives, and connects people through food
.
If you’re passionate about great food, great people, and great purpose — we’d love to meet you.
