London, Greater London, United Kingdom Brunswick East Bakehouse Full time
Brunswick East Bakehouse is a neighbourhood institution, specialising in artisan sourdough and all things baked goods.


We're looking for a new Assistant Head Baker to join us in our daily dedication of producing delicious, nutritious and sustainable sourdough.


The role is a 5 day a week, permanent role, working in a forward thinking, women lead business and baking team.


Our bakery, located in Hackney Downs, focuses on using British grown heritage grains with 100% of our flour coming from regenerative farming practices.


Working with whole wheat and grains, milling our own flours, we strive to create a zero waste baking environment taking care to produce our range of sourdoughs and daily baked goods with as much good conscience as possible.


Across our viennoiserie section we take the same level of care, using craft, skill and passion to create top notch pastries not defined by traditional standards of strong white flour but instead using British flours, cultured butter and unrefined sugars for full of flavour pastries.


A focus on seasonality working with brilliant British suppliers who support low intervention and regenerative farming practices allows for creativity in our daily craft, something which is both nurtured and encouraged within our team culture.


We take great pride in producing everything we sell in house and are looking for a dedicated baker with the same level of care to join our fast growing team.


For the right person, we offer:

  • A fantastic work life balance; 5 day a weeks (shift patterns are 5am
  • 2pm daily), no night shifts
  • A supportive team and positive work environment
  • Creative freedom to develop seasonal artisan baked goods monthly,
  • Freedom to develop new sourdough offerings and work with heritage & ancient grains.
  • Holiday pay included
  • Pension scheme
  • The opportunity to grow in your role as our independent business continues to grow

From you, we will expect:

  • Experience with sourdough production including mixing, shaping and oven shifts are essential
  • Experience working with pastry and viennoiserie
  • Experience in producing production schedules, rotas and working to delivery timetables
  • Experience in finding and negotiating with new suppliers
  • Experience of working within budgets and calculating GP's
  • An ability to develop new seasonal artisanal baked good products
  • To conduct monthly stocktakes
  • To strive towards greater sustainability and zero waste
  • An ability to produce and maintain extremely high standards
  • High standards for food safety and hygiene
  • You will have an ability to lead the baking team
  • Dedication to always strive for the best
  • The desire to develop new skills
  • Excellent attention to detail
If you're interested in joining our lovely team, we'd love to hear from you.
