Job description

WE'RE HIRING

Sourdough Baker

Marymount Bakehouse is looking for a baker to join our bread team.

We work with naturally fermented sourdough, long fermentation and small-batch production.

Our breads are made with care, consistency and a strong respect for process.

We're looking for someone who wants to properly learn the craft, build strong fundamentals and grow with the team.

What you'll be doing:

• Mixing, folding, dividing, shaping and scoring sourdough
• Preparing levains, doughs and bread mise en place
• Supporting daily bread production and bake schedules
• Monitoring fermentation and dough development
• Preparing inclusions and ingredients for our different loaves
• Helping with service when required, including reheating, dressing and preparing our sourdough pies for guests
• Learning how our products move from production into service
• Maintaining cleanliness, organisation and food safety standards
• Supporting packing, storage and bread preparation for service
• Learning to work confidently and independently when required
• Understanding when to take ownership of your station and when to step in and work together as a team
• Communicating clearly and supporting other stations when the situation requires it
• Working closely with the team to maintain consistency and quality
• Learning our production systems, recipes and approach to sourdough

Who we're looking for:

Someone who is disciplined, curious and comfortable working with their hands.

Previous baking or culinary experience is preferred, but more importantly, you must be willing to learn, take feedback and understand that good bread requires patience, repetition and attention to detail.

We also value situational awareness . Knowing what needs to be done without always being told, being able to work independently when your station requires it, and recognising when the team needs everyone to come together.

This is physical work. It involves early mornings, lifting, cleaning, repetition and staying focused even during busy production and service periods.

We are not looking for someone who simply wants to "make bread".

We're looking for someone who wants to become a better baker, understand the whole operation and become a dependable part of the team.
