We are looking for a dedicated and enthusiastic Bakery Assistant to join our team. As a Bakery Assistant, you will play a vital role in supporting the daily operations of our bakery, ensuring that our baked goods are prepared, displayed, and served to the highest standards. This position is ideal for someone who is passionate about baking, enjoys working in a fast-paced environment, and takes pride in delivering excellent customer service.
Your primary responsibilities will include assisting bakers in preparing doughs, batters, and fillings, maintaining cleanliness and organization in the kitchen and front-of-house areas, and helping customers with their purchases. You will also be responsible for packaging baked goods, restocking shelves, and ensuring that all products are fresh and attractively presented.
The ideal candidate will have a strong work ethic, a keen eye for detail, and the ability to work both independently and as part of a team. Previous experience in a bakery or food service environment is preferred but not required, as on-the-job training will be provided.

This role offers an excellent opportunity to gain hands-on experience in a professional bakery setting and to grow within a supportive and creative team. If you have a passion for baking and a commitment to quality and customer satisfaction, we encourage you to apply.
