BAKER / BAKERY ASSISTANT
Starting Pay: $19.00–$22.00/hour, depending on experience

The Baker / Bakery Assistant position is a cross-trained position. Because bread production may include downtime between different production stages, Baker / Bakery Assistants will also be trained in Food Preparation and are expected to assist with food-prep duties when the baking schedule allows.

- Accurately weigh and measure flour, water, yeast, salt, and other ingredients.

- Required information may include ingredient weights, mixing times, dough temperature, resting time, proofing time, proofer temperature and humidity, oven temperature, steam, baking time, production quantity, and other required process parameters.

- Do not independently change recipes, ingredient quantities, processing parameters, or established procedures without authorization.

- Report equipment problems or unusual production results to management.
Cross-Training & Food Preparation Support

- Follow all Ba-Ye recipes, portion standards, food-preparation procedures, and food-safety requirements while working at the food-prep station.
- Baking responsibilities remain the first priority. Employees must continue monitoring dough, proofing, timing, temperatures, humidity, ovens, and other required production parameters while assisting with food prep.
- Employees are responsible for keeping track of production timing and returning to the baking process at the appropriate time.
- Food-prep responsibilities must never cause required baking checks, production steps, or Batch Record entries to be missed or delayed.
- Be willing to assist other team members and stations when bakery production is caught up and operational needs require additional support.
The purpose of cross-training is to help employees use their work time efficiently, support the team, and develop skills in multiple areas of Ba-Ye’s operation.
Employees who demonstrate proficiency in both Baking and Food Preparation, maintain strong performance, and take on additional responsibilities may be considered for future pay increases, Lead positions, or other advancement opportunities.
