The company strives to create an excellent customer service experience for its military customers, recognizing their service and commitment by delivering quality products and superior service. MDBS operates as a civilian contractor and is open to everyone, emphasizing a welcoming and inclusive working atmosphere that values teamwork, enthusiasm, and positive communication.
The Deli Bakery Associate position at MDBS is a full-time role primarily scheduled between the hours of 7 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., including weekend shifts, which are a required part of the schedule. This position provides a unique opportunity for individuals who enjoy working in a dynamic, fast-paced environment within the food service industry, particularly those who have an interest in deli, bakery, and customer service tasks. As a Deli Bakery Associate, employees will engage directly with customers, offering personalized service by slicing deli meats and cheeses according to customer requests, preparing custom party trays, making sandwiches, and managing displays in the deli and bakery departments.
The role also entails maintaining department sanitation, ensuring the proper handling and preparation of food, and assisting with stock shipments.

Those seeking career advancement will find MDBS offers substantial growth opportunities, with a strong track record of promoting employees from within. The company supports relocation between its many commissary locations without seniority loss, which is advantageous for employees needing to move for personal or professional reasons.
