Job Description

Einstein Bros. Bagels is a nationally recognized bakery-cafe brand that has been delighting customers with freshly baked bagels since 1995. Known for its dedication to quality and community, the brand has earned a reputation for providing not just the best breakfast in the neighborhood but also spreading joy and happiness through its delicious offerings. Einstein Bros. Bagels believes that food is a means of bringing people together, and its friendly, welcoming bakeries are designed to offer a warm, uplifting atmosphere where guests can enjoy great food and great company. The company also emphasizes the importance of work-life balance for its team members, ensuring that stores close early, so employees can fully engage in their personal lives and special moments, such as dance recitals or concerts, without the stress of late or overnight shifts.

We are currently seeking a dedicated Baker to join our team at our Lakewood, Colorado location. This role is vital to our operations because a bagel is only as good as the person who bakes it, and our Bakers are the heart and soul of our bakeries. Starting as early as 3 AM, Baker team members start the day by prepping our beloved bagels and pastries, ensuring that each item meets our high-quality standards. Bakers are responsible for keeping the bakery well-stocked with fresh products on every shift, maintain a clean and safe environment, and work collaboratively with the team to provide exceptional customer service. This includes helping with order taking, sandwich making, and addressing guest needs. We pride ourselves on the quality and presentation of our food and beverages, and Bakers play a crucial role in maintaining these standards.

Working as a Baker at Einstein Bros. Bagels offers more than just a job; it is a chance to be part of a team that values positivity, teamwork, and personal and professional growth. Our Bakers enjoy competitive hourly pay ranging from $14.57 to $21.86 based on experience and local wage standards, including eligibility for tips, paid time off, and a range of supportive employee benefits such as free therapy, financial advising, and legal services through our Employee Assistance Program. Additional benefits include a 401(k) plan with company matching contributions and access to online life coaching resources aimed at stress management and personal development.

This position is ideal for someone who enjoys working in a fast-paced environment, is able to multi-task, and is passionate about producing high-quality baked goods. Candidates must be at least 18 years old, able to work early hours starting as early as 3 AM, and flexible with varied shifts which may include weekends. A valid state driver’s license may be required for specific locations, and applicants must be able to pass a background check consistent with local, state, and federal regulations. Physical requirements include the ability to sit, stand, bend, lift, and move intermittently throughout the shift.

Einstein Bros. Bagels is an equal opportunity employer committed to fair treatment and diversity in the workplace. We encourage qualified candidates from all backgrounds to apply and look forward to welcoming you to a company that not only values delicious food but also fosters a supportive and caring work environment where you can grow your career while enjoying a balanced lifestyle.
