Baker

Hi-Rise Bread Company is a well-established bakery that opened in 1996 with a small crew and a big mission: to make staple foods that surpass the quality of homemade goods. Starting with bread made from organic wheat, rye, and corn sourced from independent mills, Hi-Rise quickly expanded its selection to include rich European-style pastries, pies, and tarts featuring local fruits. Over the years, the company has continued to diversify its offerings, now providing an extensive array of baked goods such as cakes, cookies, granola, and preserves. Alongside these, Hi-Rise also offers a variety of soups, sandwiches, salads, and even fresh and frozen dinners like pot pies, stews, and house-made pasta lasagnas. The business is deeply committed to using carefully sourced ingredients and handmade processes to guarantee the highest quality in a comfortable neighborhood atmosphere.

Hi-Rise Bread Company is currently seeking a full-time baker to join their baking department with an emphasis on bread products. This role involves working closely with other team members in a fast-paced and collaborative environment. The baker will be responsible for tasks such as scaling wet and dry ingredients precisely according to recipe specifications, baking various quickbreads, scones, and breads, and shaping a wide range of doughs. The position offers training opportunities focused on bread mixing and baking once the baker demonstrates proficiency in shaping breads over a period of at least three months. While no previous commercial baking experience is required, candidates with experience are encouraged to apply. The company values individuals who show eagerness to learn, possess a strong work ethic, and have a passion for quality craftsmanship. Precision, speed, attention to detail, and the ability to work independently within a complex and fast-moving workspace are essential qualities for this role.

Work shifts begin as early as 5:00 or 6:00 a.m., so a willingness to commit to early mornings is necessary. Weekend availability is also required. The starting pay ranges from $15 to $20 an hour, depending on the candidate's experience. There are opportunities for advancement into salaried positions for those who demonstrate potential and growth. Employees benefit from free staff meals, a daily bread allowance, and consistent discounts on all menu items. Additionally, after three months of full-time employment, workers become eligible for employer-sponsored health insurance. Hi-Rise offers not only a job but a career pathway in baking backed by a company with a rich history and dedication to quality, craftsmanship, and community.
