HoneyBaked Ham Cooking Up Jobs In Creve Coeur & Olivette This Holiday Season

The premium food outlet is hiring thousands of seasonal staff nationally.

To handle the anticipated rush of business in the November and December holiday months, HoneyBaked Ham has announced plans to boost staffing around existing locations in St. Louis and add temporary kiosks in other locations.

In St. Louis, a press release earlier this week trumpeting a "quadrupling" of staff of less than 50 now to nearly 200 said that seven people would be needed for a "pop-up" location for the Dierbergs at 12595 Olive Boulevard in Heritage Plaza. The standalone store in Olivette will hire a total of 5 employees.

A spokeswoman said there are two positions left in Olivette, as the company has brought back three others who have worked in previous years.
