Job Description
Bruegger's began its journey over thirty years ago with a simple focus on one product - the bagel. Today, Bruegger's continues to honor its roots by making hot, fresh bagels throughout the day using a time-honored recipe baked in stone hearth ovens. This steadfast commitment to quality and tradition has established Bruegger's as a beloved neighborhood bakery chain with locations across the United States. Known for its friendly and welcoming atmosphere, Bruegger's prides itself on producing delicious bagels as well as offering a variety of sandwiches, salads, and paninis crafted from carefully prepared fresh ingredients.
Bruegger's values community connection and guest experience, making it an ideal workplace for those seeking a vibrant and supportive environment. The company focuses on providing full and part-time employment opportunities with shifts that accommodate early mornings and after-school schedules – without the late nights and stressful kitchen environments that some restaurants entail. This makes Bruegger's especially attractive to individuals who appreciate flexibility and a balanced work-life schedule. Competitive wages alongside perks such as a parking allowance for early morning bakers enhance its offering.
This role is specifically aimed at Early Morning Bakers for the Grant Street bakery located in downtown Pittsburgh. Early Morning Bakers play an essential role in ensuring that customers receive the freshest and highest quality bagels and bakery products, starting as early as 3:00 AM daily. Successful candidates will be part of a joyful team comprised of bakers, counter associates, and shift supervisors who foster a fun work atmosphere while delivering excellent guest service. Beyond baking, team members contribute to maintaining a safe, clean, and efficient bakery environment adhering to Bruegger's standards.
The Early Morning Baker position involves preparing bagels using Bruegger's bakery equipment and procedures, handling cash transactions accurately, and supporting marketing programs by suggestively selling promotional items. Training and certification are provided to equip team members with the skills needed to succeed. Bruegger's emphasizes a commitment to their mission, safety measures to prevent accidents, and keeping all applicable paperwork up to date.
Applicants can expect to engage in physically active work that requires being on their feet for extended periods, bending, lifting, and confidently working around ovens and bakery tools. While previous kitchen experience is preferred, it is not mandatory due to the comprehensive training program offered by Bruegger's. Team members are expected to effectively communicate with guests, co-workers, and management to create a positive environment that embodies the spirit of Bruegger's community dedication.
Overall, joining Bruegger's means becoming part of a longstanding bakery tradition focused on quality, community, and a rewarding work environment. Early Morning Bakers play a vital role in continuing the legacy of fresh bagels and exceptional service every day. Whether you are an experienced baker or looking to start a new path in a dynamic bakery setting, Bruegger's offers the training, competitive wages, and supportive team culture to help you thrive.
