Job Description

Military Deli & Bakery Services (MDBS) is a specialized food service company dedicated to serving the military community through its extensive network of 103 Commissary locations across the United States. MDBS operates in close partnership with U.S. military bases, providing high-quality deli and bakery items to military personnel and their families. As a company, MDBS upholds a strong commitment to excellence, customer service, and fostering a positive environment for both employees and customers. This dedication makes it an ideal workplace for those passionate about food service, community engagement, and career growth within an organization that values its employees and prioritizes serving those who serve the nation.

The Deli Bakery Associate with cake decorating experience is a crucial role within MDBS, designed for individuals who take pride in their craftsmanship and customer service skills. This position involves decorating cakes efficiently, generally within 15 to 20 minutes from start to finish, ensuring each product meets the company's high standards for quality and presentation. The associate will be responsible not only for cake decorating but also for filling production cases and extending baked goods displays to maintain appealing presentations for customers. Moreover, the role requires maintaining a clean and sanitary workspace, including food preparation and equipment areas, adhering strictly to food safety guidelines.

Employees in this role will work in a fast-paced environment requiring teamwork, effective communication, and a positive attitude. The associate will collaborate closely with other team members to ensure smooth operations and excellent customer experiences. Adaptability is key, as the position may involve cross-training to support other bakery and deli tasks as needed. MDBS is an equal opportunity employer welcoming all applicants, and this role is not a government position, ensuring accessibility to a wide range of candidates.

The company emphasizes employee well-being by offering great pay, paid time off including vacation and holidays, a 401k savings plan, and a flexible schedule. They also provide opportunities for advancement, encouraging internal promotions to management and corporate roles. MDBS supports mobility between commissary locations nationwide, allowing employees to relocate without losing seniority—a significant benefit for those pursuing career growth or educational opportunities.

Working as a Deli Bakery Associate at MDBS means being part of a committed team that values quality, respect, and service to an important community. The role offers consistent interaction with customers, requiring friendly communication skills and the ability to work under pressure. Physical stamina is essential due to standing, walking, lifting, and even brief exposure to freezer conditions. This position is a perfect fit for individuals who enjoy creative cake decorating and want to work in a supportive environment that strives for excellence in every baked good and deli item served.
