For more than 100 years, Seattle Fish Co. has been dedicated to serving those who serve others. It all began back in 1918, when our founder Mose Iacino first started bringing seafood to landlocked Colorado. At just 16 years old, Mose would hand-select fresh fish at the Seattle markets, carefully pack it in sawdust and ice and ship it to Denver by railcar, replenishing the ice at stops along the way. Then, from Union Station, he tirelessly pushed a wooden cart around downtown, bringing his sought-after fish and oysters to Denver chefs, markets and restaurants.

Do you thrive in a warm and positive environment where there is a clearly defined process and your role requires someone with a friendly and approachable style. Are you naturally efficient and able to juggle multiple tasks simultaneously while maintaining high standards for accuracy and follow through?
