Assistant Baker - early morning

Company
Scram Bakery is a scratch bakery and café known for its egg sandwiches and breakfast pastries — laminated croissants, milk bread buns, pastries, and fresh-baked goods made to a high standard every day. We're a very small team so we are looking for the perfect fit who can work alongside the owners daily. Currently open Thursday-Sun.

Position
We're hiring an Assistant Baker to do the a.m. bake and support daily production under the Head Baker. You'll be hands-on with mixing, lamination, shaping, proofing, and baking — learning and executing our recipes. This is a great fit for someone with some kitchen or bakery experience who's serious about their craft and wants to develop in a professional scratch bakery.

What you'll do

• Open the kitchen at 3:30am and begin the bake-off
• Assist in daily production of pastries, breads, croissants, and other baked goods.
• Mix, laminate, shape, proof, and bake to standard, maintaining consistency batch to batch
• Weigh and portion ingredients accurately; follow recipes and production sheets precisely
• Keep the bakery stocked and on schedule so the café opens ready every day
• Inventory control of all baked goods and ingredients
• Follow all food-safety and sanitation standards; keep stations, equipment, and storage clean and organized
• Label, date, and rotate product using FIFO
• Assisting other team members as needed or when business needs dictate

What we're looking for

• A valid ServSafe Food Handler Certificate is required for this role — must be held at time of hire or obtained before your first shift
• Some bakery, pastry, or professional kitchen experience preferred; lamination experience a plus (we'll train the right person)
• Genuine interest in scratch baking and craft — you take pride in doing it right
• Able to follow recipes and instructions precisely and repeat them consistently
• Strong attention to detail, cleanliness, and time management, with a constant sense of urgency
• Reliable, punctual, and a team player with excellent communication and interpersonal skills
• An ability to perform prep work in a timely fashion
• Comfortable with early-morning shifts, all weekends, and holidays
• Able to stand for long shifts and lift up to 50 lbs; comfortable working near ovens and in a fast-paced environment

Looking forward to meeting you and exploring your candidacy with our team.
