Job Description

Job Title: Baker

Location: K Brew Bakery
Position Type: Full-Time
Reports To: Bakery Manager / Culinary Director

About the Role

K Brew is expanding our in-house baking program, and we're looking for dependable, detail-oriented Bakers to help craft the products we're known for — our signature bagels. As a Baker, you'll play a core role in mixing, shaping, and baking bagels for all K Brew locations.

This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys hands-on, physical work, and being part of a tight-knit production team. No professional baking experience is required — if you love working with dough and want to grow into a skilled baker, we'll train you step by step.

Responsibilities

Bagel Dough Production

  • Mix bagel dough according to standardized recipes and production schedules.

  • Portion, shape, and proof dough with consistency and attention to detail.

  • Monitor dough texture, hydration, and fermentation times throughout the shift.

  • Maintain accurate logs for batches, timing, and recipe scaling.

Baking & Finishing

  • Perform baking processes, ensuring proper texture, color, and consistency.

  • Apply toppings and finishes with accuracy and speed.

  • Load, rotate, and unload ovens safely and efficiently.

  • Cool, organize, and store finished bagels for delivery.

Production & Team Support

  • Set up and break down production stations daily.

  • Assist with preparing and organizing ingredients, tools, and equipment.

  • Follow all cleaning routines to maintain a spotless production environment.

  • Communicate clearly with fellow bakers, delivery drivers, and café teams to support production flow.

Quality & Safety

  • Maintain high standards of product quality, consistency, and freshness.

  • Ensure all food safety and sanitation practices are followed at every step.

  • Keep equipment, mixers, tools, and ovens in clean and working order.

Qualifications

  • Interest in baking and working with dough; previous home or professional experience is a bonus but not required .

  • Strong work ethic, reliability, and a desire to grow into a skilled baker.

  • Able to lift up to 50 lbs and perform physically demanding tasks (kneading, lifting dough trays, loading ovens).

  • Attention to detail and ability to follow processes consistently.

  • Positive, team-oriented attitude and good communication skills.

What We Offer

  • Full training in professional-scale dough production and bagel baking.

  • Opportunities to advance within the bakery, pastry, or broader K Brew culinary team.

  • Free coffee daily.

  • A supportive team environment built around quality, consistency, and craft.

Why Join K Brew's Baking Team?

As part of our growing production program, you'll help create the core product that fuels our cafés every morning. You'll work with quality ingredients, learn professional baking techniques, and be part of a team that takes pride in craftsmanship and consistency. If you want a baking career that starts with real, hands-on dough work, this is the perfect place to begin.
