As a Deli Bakery Associate at MDBS, the role involves utilizing commercial ovens and preparing, processing, packaging, and labeling bakery products. Associates play a crucial part in ensuring that all bakery goods meet quality and freshness standards by inspecting and rotating products on display and removing items that no longer fit the quality criteria. The role requires maintaining an atmosphere filled with positive communication, enthusiastic customer service, and teamwork. Associates often assist colleagues and ensure the cleanliness and proper sanitation of both the department and equipment while handling food safely according to all guidelines. Working in a fast-paced environment and managing stressful situations with composure is essential for this role. The job provides a hands-on experience in both baking and deli tasks, highlighting the opportunity to cross-train and broaden skill sets. MDBS values effective and friendly communication among team members and customers, practical math skills for correctly following written guidelines, and the physical ability to lift up to 50 pounds, stand, walk, and work under specific temperature conditions like freezers. This position offers great pay, paid time off, holiday pay, a 401k plan, flexible schedules, and more personal time compared to many retail jobs, as typical commissary closing times are around 7:00 pm. It is ideal for individuals looking to join a company that values employee growth and offers a supportive work environment for those passionate about food and service.
