At Kneaders Bakery & Cafe, we believe in creating a supportive and enriching environment for our team members. Our dedication to quality and community is reflected in everything we do, from our ingredients to our customer service. We are currently seeking a passionate and skilled Head Baker who shares our commitment to excellence.

Why You'll Love Working at Kneaders:

• Health & Wellness: We offer comprehensive health benefits to support your well-being, including medical, dental, vision, and pet insurance for your furry family members.

• Career Growth: Kneaders provides numerous career development paths, including restaurant leadership, retail management, and specialization in the art of pastry and bread baking. We are committed to helping you achieve your career aspirations.

• Work-Life Balance: Enjoy guaranteed Saturdays off, allowing you to rest, recharge, and spend quality time with your loved ones.

  About the Role:

  As a Head Baker at Kneaders Bakery & Cafe, you will be a key member of a dynamic team dedicated to creating a unique menu selection of artisan, sweet, and seasonal breads. All our breads are baked with honest, whole ingredients, ensuring the highest quality and taste. You will have the opportunity to showcase your baking skills and contribute to our tradition of excellence.

  Key Responsibilities:

• Expert Baking Skills: Demonstrate exceptional abilities in the kitchen by following recipes meticulously and paying attention to every detail to create one-of-a-kind breads. You will be lifting large amounts of dough, flour, and other supplies weighing over 50 lbs. daily. The ability to stand, lift, and mix is essential for this role.

• Adaptability & Flexibility: Successfully navigate changes and be flexible while maintaining a close eye on the baking process. Your ability to adapt will be crucial, especially during busy periods and holiday seasons when schedules may include overnight shifts.

• Schedule Availability: Work mid-afternoon to night shifts, typically starting around 12 pm and ending at 6 pm, with a shift on Sunday (when the store is closed). During holiday seasons, the Bread Baking team schedule may flex into longer or overnight shifts.

  Qualifications:

• Experience: Ideally, you have 1+ years of large-scale baking or pastry experience. While this is preferred, it is not strictly required.

• Compliance: Demonstrated attentiveness to local, state, and federal regulations for food handling and sanitation standards is essential.

• Education: Formal baking or pastry education is a bonus, but not a requirement. We value hands-on experience and a passion for baking.

• Age Requirement: You must be at least 18 years of age to be considered for the role of Head Baker at Kneaders Bakery & Cafe.

  What We're Looking For:

• Passion for Baking: You are as passionate about food quality, customer service, and community as we are. Your enthusiasm and dedication will help us continue to provide exceptional products and service.

• Physical Stamina: You are capable of handling the physical demands of the job, including lifting heavy supplies and standing for long periods.

• Attention to Detail: You have a keen eye for detail, ensuring every bread you bake meets our high standards of quality.

  If this person is YOU, start your journey today and complete your application! Join Kneaders Bakery & Cafe and be part of a team that values quality, community, and career growth.
