Four time winner of "Regina's Best Bakery", Orange Boot Bakery is Regina's home for hand made artisan bread and yummy baked goods. We are looking to add an energetic, enthusiastic prep cook / baker to our baking team.
The Prep / Baker position is a very important position at the bakery. This person is responsible for keeping the bakery equipment spotless, preparing and scaling all ingredients for the next morning's bread production, feeding sourdough starters and mixing our bun doughs and sweet doughs. The Prep person is also responsible for ensuring our ingredients are all in stock so we don't run out of eggs or butter right when we need them.
This is a daytime position; typical hours are 8AM - 2PM Tuesday - Saturday.
This position is somewhat physically demanding. You will need to be able to handle a 20kg sack of flour or a 10kg tub of bread dough. The job also
requires you to be on your feet all day.
You'll need to be accurate with measuring ingredients, thorough with your mixes and precise with your portioning.
Experience in other baking / food preparation roles is an asset. So is education like the provincial food safety course or a Pastry Arts
certificate. However, this is an entry level position so we will provide training as needed.
There is an opportunity to progress into a bread baker role, so if you are looking for an apprenticeship please apply. This is a great place to start.
