Baker
New Yesterday
This role is for a highly skilled baker who is equally comfortable stepping into a chef-led kitchen environment when needed. Someone agile, creative, and excited by change, not just following a set product list, but helping shape it.
The inspiration for the space is bakery-led, produce-driven, informal but exceptional. Quality without stiffness. Craft without ego.
The Role
At its core, this is a bakery-first position, covering:
Bread (mixing, fermentation, shaping, baking)
Viennoiserie (from-scratch lamination)
Cakes, cookies & sweet baked goods
But (and this is essential), there may be periods where the bakery output is quieter, and during those times youll work alongside the kitchen team, supporting the delivery of menu dishes and service.
This isnt a compromise role. Its a deliberate hybrid for someone who enjoys breadth, pace, and variety.
What Youll Be Doing
Bakery & Pastry
Producing bread, viennoiserie, cakes, and cookies to a high standard
Working from scratch, with a strong understanding of process and technique
Contributing creatively to a regularly changing product line
Helping shape what great looks like as the concept develops
Kitchen & Service Support
Working alongside chefs when required to support menu execution
Bringing strong kitchen fundamentals: prep, service flow, cleanliness, organisation
Adapting quickly between production and service environments
Culture & Mindset
Thriving in a concept that is still being built
Being solution-focused, flexible, and collaborative
Taking pride in craft while staying commercially and operationally aware
About You
An experienced baker with confidence across bread, pastry, and viennoiserie
Comfortable with from-scratch lamination
Curious, creative, and happy to evolve menus and products
Kitchen-capable; you dont need to be a Head Chef, but you do need solid chef fundamentals
Calm under pressure and adaptable in fast-changing environments
Excited by ambiguity and building something new, rather than walking into a finished system
Why This Role Is Different
This isnt a classic production bakery job and its not a traditional chef role either. Its for someone who:
Wants creative input
Enjoys variety
Is excited by being part of a concept in its formative stages
Sees value in being multi-skilled and commercially aware
The role will naturally evolve as the business does, and the right person will help define what it becomes.
Benefits:
Group dining discounts across our groups.
Staff meals & refreshments.
Staff referral programme.
Access to up to 50% of your earned wages ahead of pay dates via Stream.
This role will evolve, and were looking for someone whos excited by that. If youre confident in your craft, adaptable in the kitchen, and curious about what this could become, wed love to hear from you.
