Job description

WAREHOUSE ASSISTANT & DRIVER Full-time (Sun-Thurs)

If you’ve ever tasted one of our famous Portuguese Tarts, you know the magic that happens in our kitchens. But to keep that magic moving seamlessly across Sydney, we need someone running the engine behind the scenes.

Who are we?

Tuga Pastries is a second-generation bakery that has been in Sydney for over 35 years making the best pastries, but most famously known for our amazing Portuguese Tarts. We currently have 3 locations, and we are thrilled to be bringing our energy to Sydney Airport (our 4th location!), with the CBD joining us next. Very exciting times ahead!

What you’ll do:

• Keep things moving: Manage daily warehouse operations, ensuring ingredients and packaging stock are organized, rotated and ready for the baking team.
• Receive with care: Meticulously receive and check incoming deliveries to ensure our supplies and ingredients are perfectly accounted for.
• Pack and load: Carefully pack orders and load the van to ensure everything arrives looking as perfect as it did when it came out of the oven.
• Maintain a clean, organized workflow: Keep the warehouse tidy, safe and compliant with food safety standards while supporting the broader Tuga team.
• Hit the road (when needed): Take the wheel for guaranteed delivery shifts on Sundays, and act as a reliable backup driver during the week to ensure our baked goods always reach their destination.
• Bring your personality: Be a reliable, hands‑on team player who brings a positive attitude to the warehouse and out on the road.

What you bring:

• A valid, full Driver’s License with a clean driving record (you are moving precious cargo, after all!).
• Previous experience in a warehouse, logistics, or delivery driver role (food industry experience is a huge bonus).
• A valid Forklift license and hands‑on experience operating a walkie stacker/lift is an added bonus!
• Physical fitness and the ability to comfortably lift, load and move stock safely.
• Strong organizational skills and the ability to manage your time effectively on the road.
• Reliability, punctuality, and a calm, positive vibe even when things get busy.

• Competitive Pay: Great hourly rates for your hard work and dedication.
• The Culture: A brand people genuinely love, family‑owned with a loyal customer base and a warm, supportive team environment.
• Growth: Join us during an exciting expansion phase with opportunities to step up as our logistics operations grow.
• Perks: Daily lunch provided.
• Stability: Stable rosters in a secure, growing company.

If you love being on the move, taking pride in an organized space and want to be a vital part of the Tuga family's growth, we’d love to meet you!
