Work environment

Street-level gelateria in Playa's pedestrian zone. Playa's warm climate makes gelato a year-round market — Italian tourists specifically seek Italian gelato and will evaluate it critically.

About the role

Italian cold artistry in a hot Caribbean city. When Italian tourists find your gelateria and come back every day of their holiday because the pistachio is better than back home — that is the gelatiere's highest honor.
