Job Description

Military Deli & Bakery Services (MDBS) is a respected provider of deli and bakery services across 103 United States Military Commissary locations. Dedicated to serving Military personnel and their families, MDBS has built a strong reputation for its unwavering commitment to food excellence and exceptional customer service. These commissaries play a vital role in supporting military communities by offering high-quality food products and services tailored to the unique demands of military life. MDBS is not a government employer, which means everyone is welcome to apply, creating an inclusive environment for all those eager to contribute to this honorable service mission.

As a Deli Bakery Associate in this dynamic and customer-focused company, you will be part of a team that values both the love of food and passion for people. This is a part-time role, typically involving approximately 20 hours per week, including shifts from 11 am to 2 pm and weekend hours. You will be an essential player in maintaining the high standards that MDBS prides itself on, from providing enthusiastic customer service and teamwork to ensuring impeccable sanitation and food safety. This role offers a unique blend of customer interaction, food preparation, and teamwork within fast-paced commissary environments.

In addition to the daily duties, associates are given opportunities to cross-train across deli and bakery tasks, including cake decorating, baking, rotisserie chicken preparation, and other specialized skills, broadening both professional experience and career growth potential. MDBS values teamwork and communication highly, expecting all associates to support one another while maintaining a positive and efficient working atmosphere. The company also highlights its commitment to career development by promoting from within, allowing associates to progress to field and corporate management roles. Furthermore, because MDBS operates commissaries in 32 states, employees benefit from the flexibility of relocating without losing their seniority, accommodating personal or educational needs.

MDBS values its employees and offers competitive pay along with substantial benefits including paid time off (with two weeks' paid vacation after one year), holiday pay for over 10 paid holidays annually, a 401k retirement plan, and flexible scheduling that allows associates more personal time due to commissaries typically closing by 7:00 pm. The inclusive working environment welcomes all individuals, including veterans and persons with disabilities, under its status as a federal contractor. If you are enthusiastic about food, enjoy working with people, and want to serve those who serve the nation, this position presents a rewarding and meaningful opportunity.
