Lead bread baker / assistant shift supervisor

Bowery is hiring an experienced baker / shift lead for our line that produces high quality sandwich breads, rolls, and buns. Hours are 4am-noon or 6am-2pm, depending on the daily production schedule.

Our ideal team member must have at least two years of experience in a commercial bakery, with primary responsibility for mixing, shaping, finishing and baking yeasted bread doughs. Team management experience is not required but definitely a plus.

Primary responsibilities include:

• daily production: scaling, mixing, shaping, and baking
  

• following detailed formulas and processes
  

• supervising the team and all processes on the production manager's days off
  

• maintaining sourdough starters, poolishes, levains, etc.
  

• maintaining the highest level of quality standards
  

• cleaning, organizing, staging, and other tasks as required
  

This position requires you to be able to lift 50lbs, be on your feet for long periods of time, and maintain production schedules in a busy environment. Responsibilities include moderate use of production software and spreadsheets. Our small team works six days a week, so weekend shifts will be required.

You should consider this opportunity if you are currently:

• working in a small bakery, and are ready to take the next step in your career
  

• working in an industrial bakery and are ready for a refreshing change of scenery
  

• generally a hard-working, talented professional baker who likes to work with others in an open and welcoming environment, and make products you would be proud to have your friends eat.
