The role of a Deli Bakery Associate at MDBS is a dynamic and rewarding position designed for individuals who enjoy working in a food service environment and want to contribute to a positive customer experience. This part-time role involves a variety of responsibilities including slicing deli meats and cheeses to customer specifications, preparing custom party trays and sandwiches, stocking and organizing displays, and assisting with shipments.
