Job Description

Military Deli & Bakery Services (MDBS) is a well-established company dedicated to serving the United States Military community by operating commissary locations across the country. MDBS currently manages 103 US Military Commissary sites, providing a wide range of high-quality deli and bakery products to military personnel and their families. The company prides itself on combining a love for food with a passion for people, creating an excellent customer service experience in every commissary store it operates. Notably, MDBS is not a government employer, which means employment opportunities are open to everyone, regardless of military status.

The role of a Deli Bakery Associate with cake decorating experience is vital to the fulfillment of MDBS's mission to offer exceptional food products and service. This position requires the individual to work in a fast-paced environment, decorating cakes efficiently and effectively, with the ability to complete a decorated cake from start to finish within approximately 15-20 minutes. Associates are responsible for maintaining the freshness and appeal of bakery products by filling production cases and stocking floor or display tables with baked goods. Moreover, they help ensure sanitation standards are upheld in the department by thoroughly cleaning equipment and adhering strictly to proper food handling and preparation procedures.

Customer service is at the heart of the Deli Bakery Associate role. Associates are expected to maintain a positive and enthusiastic demeanor, fostering teamwork and supporting fellow team members when assistance is needed. This position requires excellent communication skills and the ability to handle stressful situations while working efficiently. MDBS also encourages growth within the company, offering employees opportunities to move into field and corporate management roles. Employees who need to relocate for work or school benefit from MDBS's network of commissaries across 32 states, allowing transfers without loss of seniority.

In addition to a fulfilling career path, MDBS offers a competitive pay structure and flexible work schedules that can provide more personal time since many commissaries close by 7:00 pm. Employees can enjoy paid time off, holiday pay after eligibility, and participation in a 401k retirement plan. The company supports diversity and inclusion, welcoming all applicants including veterans and individuals with disabilities, emphasizing its federal contractor status. If you have cake decorating skills and are eager to join a company that values excellent service to those who serve the nation, the Deli Bakery Associate position at Military Deli & Bakery Services provides a rewarding work environment with multiple benefits and opportunities for advancement.
