If anyone loves bread, it’s this girl. Too bad I can’t bake that well. Can you? If so, check out A&J King Bakery in Salem, MA because they are hiring!
Per their job listing on Craigslist:
“A&J King Artisan Bakers is looking for a FULL TIME bread baker to kick butt into the evening with our swashbuckling Bread Baking Crew. We are looking to start training when we find the right candidate.
We are an award-winning artisan bakery specializing in hearth baked breads such as sourdoughs, baguettes, ciabatta, and whole grains as well as hand rolled croissants, muffins, scones, cookies, tarts and seasonal desserts. All of our products are made fresh daily from scratch ingredients. We source locally and regionally whenever possible. We also offer espresso and sandwiches in our café and run a small wholesale program providing breads and pastries to area restaurants and shops. Winner of Best of Boston in 2009 and 2012 as well as Best of North Shore every year since 2008. But enough about us.
POSITION DETAILS:
* Bread shifts start at 11am, 1pm, 4:30pm, and 6pm. Applicants should have availability for any of these shifts, as well as any day of the week. Every shift is its own animal. Be flexible!

* Prep work as necessary for various bakery products
* Standard post-shift bakery cleaning duties including weekly deep clean.
APPLICANT MUST:

* Have a driver’s license
* Be excited and passionate about food
* Be able to carry 50lbs, stand on their feet for 8 hours in a potentially hot environment, and load/unload oven using a peel
* Be a friendly team player – we work close together. No jerks.
