Hiring Experienced Bread Baker (west marin)

For 18 years, Brickmaiden Breads has been crafting organic, naturally leavened sourdough loaves in our small bake house, adjacent to the beautiful Point Reyes National Seashore. We are known for our quality and commitment to sustainability. As a team, we spend long days performing very physical work in pursuit of our dark, thick-crusted, and chewy loaves. Between mixing, hand shaping, and baking off in our wood fired oven, we are in deep discussion of how to get the best performance out of the day’s variables: flour quality, weather, starter performance. It is a labor of love, and we are looking for a like minded individual to join our team.

We have an immediate opening for an experienced baker. Strong preference will be given to those with prior experience working with high hydration sourdoughs, but we are willing to train the right individual. A minimum of one year experience in a professional kitchen setting is required. Position is 30-40 hours a week, and may include early morning shifts (start time 1-2am). Weekend availability is a must.

Ideal candidate is communicative, reliable, organized, and passionate about baking. The position is physically demanding, and requires being able to lift 50 lbs, and working on your feet for ten-hour shifts. As a small business, we rely on each employee to step in wherever help is needed, and to care for the space and equipment with thorough cleaning and proper maintenance.
Pay is DOE. We offer a match IRA after one year, and paid vacation after two years.
Please email inquiries. Be sure to include relevant experience, and a brief introduction about yourself and your interest in bread baking.
