Job description

• Paid bread baking apprenticeship in sourdough
• Piet Heinstraat, The Hague (Den Haag)
• A six-month apprenticeship

Our apprenticeship teaches bread baking from the ground up, by doing it every day alongside our bakers. It runs for about six months, at least four days a week, and it's paid from day one.

You don't need bakery experience. You do need to take baking seriously as a trade, be patient with repetition, and learn quickly. There's more prep and cleaning than shaping and baking, and you learn that part properly too.

What you'll do

• Learn sourdough step by step: mixing, fermentation, shaping and baking
• Work shifts with the bakery crew, taking on more as you go
• Keep the bakery clean and organised

What we offer

• Paid from day one: Unpaid apprenticeships only work for people who don't pay rent.
• A programme, not just shifts: The apprenticeship follows a set plan, and your progress is guided and evaluated throughout.
• Bakers' hours, not factory hours: You start around six, not three.
• Where it can lead: Apprentices here have gone on to become head bakers.
